(trying to remember) Because I assumed there is never any boolean feedback on a resize operation and so GTK would be correct in assuming resize must always succeed.
However I now realize the correct feedback method is in the form of resize events (which, sheepishly, I authored), so yeah GTK can check if the resize succeeded. You're right GTK should be open here too. Even if a tiling/stage WM fails to honour the requested size, the toolkit should be listening for resize events and respond to the fact that it is now tiled. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1670390 Title: Desktop applications don't get properly resized when launched in staged mode To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/canonical-devices-system-image/+bug/1670390/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
