Additionally to the problems mentioned here: viewtopic.php?f=206&t=251027 it seems that the only messages an application gets if a window is minimized by clicking the '-' window frame button is a _NET_WM_STATE property change event with _NET_WM_STATE_HIDDEN set. Is this intended? That means that Cinnamon must be treated differently than other desktop environments which makes the construction of a cross-platform and cross-desktop GUI toolkit even more difficult. How can a minimized window be showed in software? The only way I found is to set the _NET_ACTIVE_WINDOW property which also looks a little bit special to me. ;-) Is it intended? " and " Hi, I try to adapt MSEide+MSEgui https://sourceforge.net/projects/mseide-msegui for linux Mint-MATE and found that XReconfigureWMWindow() is broken. In XReconfigureWMWindow() call stackmode "Below" windows are placed at the bottom of the window stack instead just below the sibling. This makes it impossible for clients to reliably set the window stacking order. " If a sibling and a stack_mode are specified, the window is restacked as follows:
Above The window is placed just above the sibling. Below The window is placed just below the sibling. " https://tronche.com/gui/x/xlib/window/c ... dowChanges Also _NET_RESTACK_WINDOW does not work. Where should I report the bugs? Edit: It seems that the Cinnamon edition has the same problems. Do they use the same window manager? " You see, I try to be as kind as possible. ;-) Sadly I got no answer.
