reopening. I know figured out why it doesn't work on my machine:
I set metacity to disable workarounds (gconf-editor -> apps -> metacity ->
general)
metacity is version 2.8.6
Description of gconf-key /apps/metacity/general/disable_workarounds
#####
Disable misfeatures that are required by old or broken applications
Some applications break specifications in ways that result in window manager
misfeatures. For example, ideally Metacity would place all dialogs in a
consistent position with respect to their parent window. This requires ignoring
application-specified positions for dialogs. But some versions of Java/Swing
mark their popup menus as dialogs, so Metacity has to disable dialog positioning
to allow menus to work in broken Java applications. There are several other
examples like this. This option puts Metacity in full-on Correct mode, which
perhaps gives a moderately nicer UI if you don't need to run any broken apps.
Sadly, workarounds must be enabled by default; the real world is an ugly place.
Some of the workarounds are workarounds for limitations in the specifications
themselves, so sometimes a bug in no-workarounds mode won't be fixable without
amending a spec.
#####
Since this option is disabled by default I lowered Prio.
And a reminder: Moving works fine until you resize the toolbar. After resizing
the toolbar you cannot move it without pressing the modifier.
Docking and undocking will make the toolbar movable again using the titlebar.
To reproduce run
"gconftool-2 --set --type bool /apps/metacity/general/disable_workarounds true"
or use gconf-editor to set the value.
No need to restart OOo or even gnome. This is instant-apply.
Drag away a toolbar and resize it -> cannot move it anymore without modifier
run
"gconftool-2 --set --type bool /apps/metacity/general/disable_workarounds false"
-> moving works again -> resize toolbar -> still works.
