Unlike most other window managers, compiz uses viewports, which in turn means compiz moves windows out of sight when switching workspaces instead of making them invisible. Wine passes the movement information to the app, which (probably, we can't check) sees that the window is moved offscreen and tries to move it back, which messes up things. It would be nice if that issue could be reproduce with a free Windows app, so I could verify this assumption. If the assumption is true, this would be a WONTFIX candidate, because it's simply not possible to fix it properly in that case. Does making the Lotus Notes window sticky help? -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.opencompositing.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug. _______________________________________________ Dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.compiz-fusion.org/mailman/listinfo/dev
