Hello Carsten,

thanks for your answer. Somehow I only got it today, hence my answer to Kim's without regard to the things you said.

oh this is easy... file a bug with opera. seriously it's an opera bug. why? they do NOT handle virtual roots. it's not HARD to do. you just have to NOT assume that all application windows have frame windows that are children of the root window - they may be children of a VIRTUAL root. i have seen this code before - hell xprop and xwininfo in the core x code suffer from this. opera needs to PROPERLY walk the window tree to find the target app window. (ie start at root and keep working down the tree with window geometries until the window is
found). this is the CORRECT and GENERIC solution that will work for all virtual
root wm's, all non virtual root wm's and any form of swallowed or embedded app
windows. :)


OK, thanks for the hint. If I understand this correctly, then the multiple desktop mechanism of both KDE and sawfish must somehow work without virtual roots, else this problem would also occur with them, which it doesn't. Is that correct?

if you are an opera user they will (hopefully) pay attention as you are a
customer.


Let's see...

Marc
