I was wondering about that too. I understand that it's generally good policy to leave positioning of generic windows up to the window manager, but sometimes you want to write a dock or taskbar which anchors itself to screen edges, and can animate in and out of view; or a splash screen which is centered on one screen. What is the right way to do that on Wayland? > Clients don't get to set window position with Wayland. > You should write a Wayland protocol for that but you need a compositor > that speaks that protocol. Has it not yet been done in existing compositors such as the Qt one or in Weston? _______________________________________________ wayland-devel mailing list wayland-devel@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/wayland-devel
