Compiz Cube Rotation/Wall bug?

I have a problem with this plugins in Gnome (I don't know if this happens in others WMs). When I am with the cursor on the leftmost or rightmost columns of pixels of screen the clicks doesn't work. For example, the menus of Gnome doesn't expand if I click in top of them.

Cube Rotate reserves the leftmost and rightmost columns of pixels for detecting mouse drags. Wall does the same, but for the top and bottom as well.

Anyone have this issue either?

The cube -- no idea.
For the wall -- you can manually disable binding for each "edge flip" in the settings (Wall Plugin/Bindings/Edge Flipping).

Yes its working. But disable this bindings is very sad. Someone confirme, is this a bug? Have this bug been reported in somewhere?

This is not a bug -- this is how Compiz works, and it was the same with Beryl before that.

On Debian and Ubuntu, these plugins works fine without this problem. Why this happens only in Arch? This "problem" happens in others distributions?

Re: Compiz Cube Rotation/Wall bug?

Dunno about other distros you mention, but I remember back when I was using Ubuntu (over a year ago - Edgy) I couldn't use an auto-hiding panel on the side of the screen with Beryl cube enabled.  So the "problem" was present already then, the panel wouldn't unhide when I moved the cursor to the edge of the screen.  Perhaps since then Ubuntu changed the default Compiz-Fusion configuration it ships with...  Compiz-fusion packages in Arch are, AFAIK, what Compiz-Fusion devs provide without any Arch-specific customizations, but I could be wrong.
