multi-screen fixathon

[Hans Chen]

Hi,

Twinview here. I have some problems with moving widgets across the screens:
 - If I drag the handle, the widget gets dropped when it's over the
containment on the other monitor (without me releasing the mouse button)
 - If I drag by clicking on the widget, it "disappears" when dragged to the
next monitor. It looks as if the widget is behind the containment.

Running trunk from yesterday. The Nvidia driver I use is quite old (from
2007), and I have my main monitor on the right ("TwinViewOrientation"
"RightOf") which may be quite unusual.

Unfortunately I'm quite busy the coming weeks, but I'll try to help out as
much as I can. My nick is Mogger on IRC (#plasma), just ping me if you want
to reach me that way.

The ZUI still has some problems with multiple monitors in my opinion. It's
hard to know which containment the other screen will get when you zoom in.
Shouldn't the two containment be handled as one activity? If you didn't know
about it, I'd be happy to file a bug.

Cheers,

Hans
