Narrow wingpanel when connecting to external display #689

Description

@Le0-7n

What Happened?

Wingpanel becomes narrower when my laptop is connected to an external dispalay. Wingpanel retains the width even after disconnecting the external display. Adjusting the resolution of the built-in display seems to fix the width of wingpanel.

This issue occurs with both external monitors I have access to. One of them has a lower resolution that the built-in display whereas the other one has the same.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Connect laptop to external display
    -- Wingpanel changes width --
  2. Disconnect external display
    -- Wingpanel retains width --
  3. Change built-in display resolution
    -- Wingpanel reverts back to the expected width --

Expected Behavior

The expected behaviour is that wingpanel should retain its default edge-to-edge width.
