Hello, I am currently struggling with an inability to move Xquartz (either 
latest stable or latest development) windows in the top third or so of my 
screen, as noted by another user here:  
https://superuser.com/questions/844291/x11-window-doesnt-take-up-whole-screen-in-os-x-yosemite
 
<https://superuser.com/questions/844291/x11-window-doesnt-take-up-whole-screen-in-os-x-yosemite>

My current solution is to manually set the resolution of the Xquartz display 
(not an Xwindows expert, apologies for any inaccurate language) in xterm:

"xrandr --output default --mode 3360x1080”

Which gives me freedom of movement to the top of both my screens.  However this 
is at the cost of all Xwindows disappearing when I switch “focus” to another 
application: obviously undesirable if I wish to reference my current work in an 
X environment, from another application.  

Is anyone aware of a way to enable full screen movement a la my provisional 
“xrandr” workaround without losing the ability to view Xwindows while working 
in other applications?  Should I tweak the xrandr command/mix in any other 
settings? 

Thanks for any help, Ben
