Bug Description

Since the last update, suddenly the Compiz Grid isn't functioning as expected.

I've got the grid set to put the window to top right when dragging to top-right corner or pressing <Control><Alt>KP9. Either of these two methods produces the grid placed at "Top" rather than "Top Right".

All of the other positions function as expected.

I am using Compiz (Version: 1:0.9.6+bzr20110929-0ubuntu5) with Ubuntu 11.10 and I am experiencing the same issues, actually is not just the top-right but all the positions are worse than before.

Example: now left and right just put a window in half the screen, while before using the same feature many times produced different measures.

In addition, if you push Ctr-Alt-KP9 to adjust a windows to the top right corner and after you change to another viewport using "expo pluguin" then the windows previously adjusted is showed in the 'new' viewport. In fact, the window is showed there but it is not there, since you canot access to it. The only way to access to it is changing again with the "expo plugin" to the original viewport.

The same happens with Ctr-Alt-KP7, Ctr-Alt-KP1 and Ctr-Alt-KP3.

The above comment is not the case across the board. Even when I pull out to expo view, I still see things in the wrong place. ctr-alt-kp9 still places the window to the top position instead of the top-right.
