This breaks rendering to the root window. For example, run "xsetroot
-solid green" Part of the rendering is clipped away on one of the
screens. E.g., on my setup with a 1024x768 screen and a 1920x1080
screen to the right of it, only the leftmost 896 pixels of the right
screen are rendered because its root window extends from column -1024
to 895, while its borderClip goes from 0 to 1919:
(gdb) p screenInfo.screens[1]->root->drawable
$1 = {type = 0 '\000', class = 1 '\001', depth = 24 '\030', bitsPerPixel = 32 ' ', id = 555, x = -1024, y = 0, width = 1920, height = 1080,
pScreen = 0x1a44dd0, serialNumber = 3010}
(gdb) p 1920 - 1024
$2 = 896
(gdb) p screenInfo.screens[1]->root->borderClip
$3 = {extents = {x1 = 0, y1 = 0, x2 = 1920, y2 = 1080}, data = 0x0}
