Maybe it's the other way around; by forcing the gvim window to open with an offset it goes over the screen edge for reasons known only to it. So try disabling one by one then both awful.placement calls and repeat. But why do you even float gvim? Wouldn't you be more comfortable with a maximized gvim in its own tag. But since you do, you can try applying a custom geometry to gvim in awful.rules.rules. See xterm example here http://awesome.naquadah.org/wiki/FAQ#How_to_start_clients_on_specific_tags_and_others_as_floating.3F Also the last obvious question. Are you ignoring size hints for gvim (or all windows?). See size_hints_honor = false in your awful.rules.rules. -- Adrian C.
