            Bug ID: 59981
           Summary: explorer doesn't respect virtual desktop resolution
                    setting in winecfg when using /desktop=shell
           Product: Wine
           Version: 11.12
          Hardware: x86-64
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: programs
          Assignee: [e-mail]
          Reporter: [e-mail]
  Target Milestone: ---
      Distribution: ---

With bug 58105 fixed, we now have a single virtual desktop window when invoking
explorer using the "/desktop=shell" argument while having virtual desktop mode
enabled in winecfg.

However, that window does not respect the default desktop resolution setting in
winecfg. Seems to be defaulting to 1024x768 instead? Not sure, attempting to
check it via the Display properties in Wine's Control Panel gives an empty
display resolution list, and no ability to change it from there.

(Note: In my set up there are two monitors configured in Xorg, with the desktop
extended to the second monitor, but only one display shows up in Wine's Control
Panel. So that might be related.)

Changing the virtual desktop display resolution by providing it as an option to
the desktop argument, i.e. "/desktop=shell,1440x830", works. But it's not ideal
to have to set it manually every time explorer is invoked just to have a
working taskbar.

(Although ideally, we could just enable the taskbar in winecfg and wouldn't
need to provide *any* arguments to explorer....)
