I get some different results when testing with 3 displays on Ubuntu 20.04. The GNOME display settings show me the following numbering: 1 - built-in 2 - external, HDMI 3 - external, VGA It behaved normally with the built-in display (number 1) set as the primary display. I could pick any screen for the presentation, and the primary screen would be prioritised for the presenter console when it wasn't the presentation display. However, if I switch the primary display to external monitor number 2, LibreOffice starts confusing the numbers: - Presenting on "display 1" actually presents on display 2 (the primary display), console on display 1 - Presenting on "display 2 (external)" actually presents on display 1, console on display 2 - Presenting on "display 3" was correct (and put the console on the primary display) Finally, using the display 3 as the primary: - Presenting on "display 1 (external)" actually presents on display 2, console on display 1 - Presenting on "display 2" actually presents on display 1, console on display 2 - Presenting on "display 3" correctly presents on display 3 (and puts the console on display 2) In summary, in my tests: LibreOffice gets the labelling of the two first displays wrong when the built-in display is *not* set as the primary display. I can also see the incorrect behaviour of the Exchange button when Display 3 is involved: display three is dropped and the presentation + console end up on displays 1 and 2. This should probably be reported separately. Two questions: - Does LO behave normally when you have your built-in display as the main display? - Does LO get the numbering of screens wrong? With 3 monitors in Windows 1 internal set primary 2 external VGA (2048x1152) 3 external HDMI 4k With Presentation Display set to: Auto External (Display 2) the default -Presentation on screen 3 -Presenter mode is on Display 1 (Primary Screen) Display 1 -Presentation on Display 1 (Primary/internal) -Presenter Mode on Display 3 Display 2 (External) -Presentation on Display 3 -Presenter Mode on Display 1 (Primary/internal) Display 3 -Presentation on Display 2 -Presenter Mode on Display 1 -Note: Exchange at this point switches Presentation to Display 1 and Presenter Mode to screen 3 Sorry. To answer the questions: - Does LO behave normally when you have your built-in display as the main display? Yes. Presentation is on Screen 1 and Presenter Mode on Screen 3. Exchange also works swapping screen 1 and 3. - Does LO get the numbering of screens wrong? It appears that LO may just be confusing the numbers when external displays are set as the primary. [Automated Action] NeedInfo-To-Unconfirmed This sounds very similar to bug 152383. If yes, please set this as duplicate. |
