Here are a few cases where it still seems to fail after the update:


Title: secondary above the primary
Cmd: xrandr --output DP-0 --primary --pos 0x1440 --rotate normal --preferred --output DP-2 --pos 0x0 --rotate normal --preferred

screen #0 java.awt.Rectangle[x=0,y=1440,width=3440,height=1440]
screen #1 java.awt.Rectangle[x=0,y=0,width=2560,height=1440]



x  20000 y    200 [moving to]
- x   2559 y    200 [actual location] # before fix
+ x   3439 y   1440 [actual location] # after fix


---


Title: primary above the secondary, right side aligned
Cmd: xrandr --output DP-0 --primary --pos 0x0 --rotate normal --preferred --output DP-2 --pos 880x1440 --rotate normal --preferred

screen #0 java.awt.Rectangle[x=0,y=0,width=3440,height=1440]
screen #1 java.awt.Rectangle[x=880,y=1440,width=2560,height=1440]



x    200 y  20000 [moving to]
- x    200 y   1439 [actual location]
+ x    880 y   2879 [actual location]

screen #1 java.awt.Rectangle[x=880,y=0,width=2560,height=1440]
