If the "GNOME shell" is able to ask Wayland to position the diverse elements of the destop, then the cooperation of the "GNOME shell" and "gnome-terminal" should be able to do the same.
Wayland can be asked to position the top bar to the top of the screen, to position the side bar to the left of the scereen, ... then "GNOME shell" and "gnome-terminal" should be able to request at Wayland the top-right or top-left positioning according to the original request of gnome-terminal --geometry=-0+0" or "gnome-terminal --geometry=+0+0" respectively. To position someting into one of the 4 corners is so common request, that there shuld be a solution for that, --- hence this bug report is anyways >>>> a real problem of the cooperation of "gnome-terminal" and "GNOME shell" with "Wayland". Yet another issue: "I think it's more of a security feature than a bug, ..." --- If Wayland doesn't support the positioning request due to security concerns, then even the size requests shuold be forbidden and make that features obsolote as weel, since a request for maximal possibble size implies the dangerous request of positioning, namely into the upper left corner, what positioning request is considered a security threat. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1925732 Title: new in 21.04: gnome window manager ignores the --geometry location request of the gnome-terminal To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gnome-shell/+bug/1925732/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
