[GNOME] Cliks are ignored at the bottom/right part of the screen

Hi all,
after upgrading to gnome 3.14,
I cannot raise a window by cliking inside it if I click at the bottom or right part of the screen.
I cannot pop-up a context menu by clicking the wallpaper either.
My screen is of size 1920x1200, but only clicks inside about top-left 1600x1080 are recognized.

But I can pop-up the bottom notification panel,
and If I click the bottom edge to resize/raise a window,
it works regardless of the position.
Window's title bars  are another exceptions.

Does anyone else have the same problem?
or Did I break something?

regards,
akihiro

I have dual 1920x1200 screens and don't see what you do but I do find that I can't click on icons in my message window since 3.14. They only become sensitive if I position the mouse on the extreme left side of the icon, it's as if some geometry calculation by the shell is wrong which seems related to what you are seeing.

Single screen here and I got the same issue. Quite funny, though, how fast I’ve gotten accustomed to it.

Same problem here with icons in the message tray. Was wondering if it's related to running in HiDPI mode (with window scaling set to 2), but, given the experience of others, it seems not.

The Gnome game Swell Foop displays a similar issue: it\s only toward the left side of the window that groups of tiles are highlighted on mouseover and can be clicked for removal.
