Screenshot of the two overlapping wallpapers

I'm using Xfce 4.8 pre1 / xfdesktop 4.7.2 in a cloned dual screen setup. Using two different resolutions results in two overlapping wallpapers on the bigger screen. See attachment.
Comment 1 Eric Koegel editbugs 2013-09-30 08:50:32 CEST
On a multi-monitor setup, xfdesktop will now avoid drawing over the wallpapers
that came before it which should help some with these issues, depending on the
order you have the monitors setup:

This fix will be available in the next stable release, you can test it in the
4.11 dev release (or in master). Let us know if this is fixes the issue for you.
