Summary: office 2007 ribbon-apps and extended desktop issues Product: Wine Version: 1.2 Platform: x86 OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P3 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: sven.plaga@fh-deggendorf.de
During my work with Office 2007 i've noticed that it has problems with my extended desktop environment:
When i switch a ribbon based application like word or excel 2007 from window mode to full mode everything works on my primary monitor (i can repeat it without problems).
On the extended monitor the switch from window to full works for the first time. If the switch is performed a few times (usually two times) * the window is stuck at the extended monitor and maintaining full mode and * all dialog windows (e.g. file open dialog) do not appear because the main window has a permanent focus (the dialog windows are behind the main program window and wait for OK --> as the buttons are out-of-reach, the program looks completely "frozen")
This situation then is permanently maintained because this setting ist stored in the registry under HKEY_CURRENT_USER
* for Word [Software\Microsoft\Office\12.0\Word\Data] * for Excel [Software\Microsoft\Office\12.0\Excel\Options]
Workarround is:
* Word: Delete in [Software\Microsoft\Office\12.0\Word\Data] the REG_BINARY "Settings" * Excel: Change in [Software\Microsoft\Office\12.0\Excel\Options] the DWORD Maximized from X to 0
and restart the respective programms.
The tested systems configuration was:
* Ubuntu 9.10 * Intel Corporation 4 Series Chipset Integrated Graphics Controller * Compiz deactivated * Extended Desktop performed using xrandr
