Perhaps the way I described the problem was not this clear :-)
Yes I was speaking about the "Maximize" option in the context menu (there is no maximize button on the window). Do you mean the context menu icon and the Close an Minimize buttons are working after you clicked the Maximize from the context menu? They do not for me unless I use the "Restore" icon on the main Lmms window.

And in fact, the inconsistency looks a bit more tricky (on my side) because the first time I open the Sf2 Instrument window the "Size" option of the context menu is active. It does nothing except changing the mouse cursor shape but after a Maximize/Restore it is grayed (deactivated) and stays grayed even after closing and reopening the Sf2 window. Weird...

My Qt version is 4.8.1, not sure if it is the right one.
For the TDE desktop, Lmms would be the only app to show a problem with. I build and develop Qt programs with it and never encountered such a problem.

On the other hand, I agree that this is not a show stopper for Lmms 1.1.
I will open a bug anyway as you suggest,

Thanks

That is very strange. I've never encountered it before, so it may be a bug specific to the QT version you are using (or perhaps the TDE desktop environment).

I took a look at the instrument windows and they certainly have the option to maximize via context-menu, but not via the window corner.

Clicking "Ma_x_imize" in the context menu does the strange behavior you are describing, but recovery isn't as extreme as it seems to restore just fine.

Furthermore, for this behavior is consistent against all plugins, so I'm not sure why your bug is limited to sf2_player.

Definitely worth filing a bug against, IMO, even if we can't fix it, to log the behavior for others, or to push upstream to the QT team if QT5 still experiences it.

    Hi Lmms crew,

    I just noticed a somewhat bad behaviour of the SF2 instrument
    windows in
    version stable-1.1.
    If you click on the window menu icon and choose the "Maximize" option,
    the window is simply moved to coordinates (0,0) of the Lmms workspace
    (however it is not resized, which is ok)
    Then, the SF2 menu menu icon on the right and the minimize and close
    buttons on the left become unresponsive.

    I think the "Maximize" option should be removed from the SF2
    window menu
    since the SF2 window size is fixed.
    At first glance, I think it is just a matter of setting the Qt window
    properties to remove the Maximize option.
    I think I should be able to fix it since I use Qt for a personal pet
    project.

    What do you think about this?
    Should I open a bug?

    Ubuntu 12.04 LTS 32 bits with TDE desktop
    Lmms stable-1.1 build from git sources today
