The place plugin has a bug: when compiz is restarted or started to replace another wm it the windows are placed in weird positions ( titlebar behind the panel etc.) shouln't the place plugin loop over all open windows and place them correctly when loaded? this should solve this issues. any reason why this isn't done? have I missed something or is this just a bug?

I have configured compiz to use 1 workspace and 4 viewports and metacity to use 4 workspaces. When I start compiz while metacity was running it uses 4 workspaces and 4 viewports (ignoring the gconf settings). When I restart X so that compiz is started before metacity this does not happen (it uses what its configured for). bug or feature? if feature can it be disabled? switching

I've been using compiz on KDE for a while now and I like the eye candy. Thanks to all who made this possible. I'm usually a no-nonsense guy who doesn't care about eye candy (I'm not even using a background picture because I'm worried about the memory it'll use (on a machine with 2 GB of RAM) :) ) but compiz stormed (sic!) my defences. Now for my questions: 1. compiz is a

Hello, After trying to solve a issue with desktop-effects in fedora (compiz does not let itself to be replaced by metacity). We come to the conclusion that the compiz session management code is broken. When unmanaging the screen compiz should unregister itself from the session manager to let a new started wm to take over the screen. See https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=229113

Hi, Here is a scenario: I have two windows (A and B) and I want to drag a file from one to the other. I focus window A, browse to the place that I want to drop the file and then try and pick up the file from window B, window B gets focused when I start to drag the icon Is there any way to make Compiz only focus a window when I click it but not when I click and drag an item on it? (Sometimes,

David & All, As you might have heard, Intel recently introduced a new low-power device called a Mobile Internet Device (MID). We're working in Intel's Open source Technology Center on the Linux Desktop UI. Given the small screen we're planning on using a stack-based window manager where each application runs full-screen (think Matchbox). We think it would be very cool to get a

Hi, u found this bug with compiz turned on: "metacity doesn't know what is the full screen resolution" https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=431302 Can you please look at it and say if this looks like a compiz, X, gnome which bug :) Thank you very much in advance, Valent. -- http://kernelreloaded.blog385.com/ linux, blog, anime, spirituality, windsurf, wireless registered

Hi, I've noticed, now that I'm using twinview, that when I click any other window outside of the Wine desktop (Civ4 or WCIII normally), I can click back to the Wine desktop but can no longer use any of the keyboard shortcuts. Things work fine before actually clicking outside the wine window (for example, on my Pidgin chat window). This happens whether the app is run in windowed mode or

The window decoration system in compiz is implemented using a decoration plugin and a separate window decoration drawing application (a decorator). The decorator is drawing window decorations to minimal sized pixmaps. These pixmaps along with sets of coordinates which maps the pixmaps to windows are communicated back to the decorator plugin through a property on the client window. The coordinates

Switching viewports/desktops/cube faces seems to mess up the stacking order - Quinn Storm says the visible stacking order isn't reflected somewhere else. Bottommost windows don't seem to work right - not sure if this is a bug in compiz or gimmie but Gimmies button bar never drops below maximized windows and it does in Metacity. Will investigate when I get a chance. thanks -mike

Hiya Compiz list! I am a Linux UI dude for VMware as my day job and am working on improving things in Workstation and Player with regards to multiple monitors on Linux. Some of my colleagues worked with the xdg/wm-spec folks just earlier this year to get the _NET_WM_FULLSCREEN_MONITORS hint into the EWMH spec to address the needs applications have in needing to be both fullscreen and spanning

hi, For compiz ubuntu packages, I made some patchs to have a behavior of compiz nearer to metacity. All patch are made for compiz-0.3.6 and they are more hacks or draft than good fix, i hope they can help. http://gandalfn.club.fr/ubuntu/compiz-patch/90-fix-no-border-window-shadow.patch This patch fix white boxes instead of shadows for gnome-panel and other non-standard windows on AiGLX.

Hi, I've been following the list for a few months but this just my first post to the list. I've just started to use compiz again a few days ago and I have a few things (probably bugs) here that bugged me a little bit. I am not sure whether the bugs is in compiz or somewhere else so it would be nice if someone could confirm them. Here they are: - on default window decoration the maximize

Hi I would like to help with metacity testing/development. I think I may help with the 3D development of metacity but I don't know with whom I should contact. Hope someone will help. Regards MichalDavidR

hi I'm running Ubuntu 10.04 LTS and using the latest version of WINE (downloaded yesterday) I am currently running a downloader/installer in WINE and i minimized it accidentally and now i can't find it to restore it, it's not a huge issue as i'm sure the downloader/installer is still running but i would like to know how far the progress on it is... I'm running WINE in a

I have finally encountered this problem in such a way that everything went awry. Running Simcity 4 Rush Hour with the following command line: env WINEPREFIX="/home/john/.wine" wine C:\\PROG\~FBU\\Maxis\\SIMC\~ZMW\\Apps\\SimCity\ 4.exe -intro:off Which brought up the game, just fine. I opened my largest city, and very soon after that, while I was adding something to the layout, the

Hi to all. I've just installed a Fedora Core 6 on a Desktop here, adding the default distro compiz package.
