Re: xinit hangs on XWin infinite loop when using -displayfd
I found as a workaround to add the arguments "-nolisten tcp" when invoking xinit. However, I was under the impression that it was incompatible with -multiwindow and -clipboard, both of which seem to be working fine: https://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-xfree/2009-05/msg00016.html Matt D.

Re: Wine creating windows offscreen when "multiwindow" is used?
On 09/07/2014 23:22, Matt D. wrote: Yes! That fixed it. Windows from Wine open up just as regular X windows on the primary monitor. Thanks for testing. This change is included in 1.14.1-4 To achieve this is appears as though you're ignoring the Window's requested x/y position entirely and favoring the placement heuristics, as these coordinates are being ignored. When the requested position isn't on a monitor, yes. I do have a use-case where I want windows from Wine to be created at a designated position for testing, so I don't have to test on a Windows machine for placement as well. Is it at all possible to have these windows map their coordinates strictly, as in 0,0 on the primary monitor would be 1920x1080 in my case. This is a bit more work. Firstly, it seems there are some bugs in the way we transform between X and Windows coordinates, so it's only done correctly when the top-left of the X screen is at the top-left of the Windows virtual desktop. Secondly, I'm not sure how we can have X coordinates 0,0 not at the top-left and have things work correctly. X windows with negative coordinates are by definition off-screen, so may not render correctly. Or we could adjust the placement of all windows by the required offset, but I'm not sure that is a good idea. For example, I may want a child window which is a custom dialog aligned to the center of its parent, or a newly created window to be center-aligned to the screen. You might find running wine in 'virtual desktop' mode helpful, as I don't think it has enough knowledge of the Xinerama monitor layout to place windows centered on a monitor. -- Jon TURNEY Volunteer Cygwin/X X Server maintainer -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://x.cygwin.com/docs/ FAQ: http://x.cygwin.com/docs/faq/
