The Window Size Hints (XA_WM_NORMAL_HINTS) that an application provides for the window manager not only have base_(width|height) and min_(width|height), they also have max_width and max_height fields. (also interesting is the (min|max)_aspect...) However, given scalable fonts this rarely is useful and I am unsure about the support in the various toolkits and windowmanagers. I am also unaware of any programs using it. So, there *is* a standard protocol already... :-) Bye, Simon -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.home.unix-ag.org/simon/ _______________________________________________ Gimp-developer mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.xcf.berkeley.edu/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer
