Hi! Some programs like to resize and replace themselves after start. This is annoying as they may move to another screen. For example, Wireshark is like that.
It uses GTK but ultimately, this is the call to XResizeWindow or XMoveResizeWindow which triggers this behaviour. Would it be possible to tell Awesome to ignore those? If not, such a behaviour could be overrident with LD_PRELOAD. For example, there is already something done specifically for Steam about this: https://github.com/dscharrer/steamwm However, I would like something more generic that I could LD_PRELOAD for the whole session. Unfortunately, there are some legit use of XMoveResizeWindow. Would it be possible for Awesome to help me when to prevent such a resize? For example, is it possible for Awesome to set a property on a window that I could easily read when intercepting XMoveWindow? -- Say what you mean, simply and directly. - The Elements of Programming Style (Kernighan & Plauger) -- To unsubscribe, send mail to [email protected].
