15499,seamless mode works only on laptop screen,dovholuk,,"I have found that using seamless mode in Fedora and Ubuntu will result in the screen going seamless on the laptop's display only. I have three screens - the laptop screen and two external monitors (via a docking station) in that order:
    laptop screen <--> lcd panel 1 <--> lcd panel 2

I have set my ""middle"" monitor (lcd panel 1) to be the main window however no matter what I do I've not found a way to go seamless and have the seamless display on the monitor of my choosing.

An interesting note is that the desktop manager ""cinnamon"" - DOES work properly. I can move the non-seamless window to whichever screen I choose, use HOST+l to go seamless and it'll be seamless on the monitor that the non-maximized guest OS was on. (this does have some interesting quirks too but it works > 90% of the time pefectly)

It's been a bug for as long as I've used virtualbox (a long time) and I've seen the bug all through the later 4.x and now in the 5.x product.
