@gneeot:
The problem is that obvious things often get very complicated inside the code
;) and we have
to be very careful to not introduce regressions...
A ton of other functions calls PrivateWindow::addWindowSizeChanges (...) where
this bug
happens - th real responsibility for this behaviour is to be found in
src/screen.cpp, where
this code can be found:
/* Returns default viewport for some window geometry. If the window spans
* more than one viewport the most appropriate viewport is returned. How the
* most appropriate viewport is computed can be made optional if necessary. It
* is currently computed as the viewport where the center of the window is
* located.
*
* XXX: It is possible for this function to return a negative viewport, which
* definitely feels wrong, however it seems that some plugins depend on this
behaviour
* so they need to be fixed first
*/
void
compiz::private_screen::viewports::viewportForGeometry (const
CompWindow::Geometry &gm,
CompPoint
&viewport,
ViewportRetrievalInterface *viewports,
const CompSize &
screenSize)
^^ this function is then responsible for returning the wrong workspace, wrong
in the sense that
it can be offscreen also...
I see multiple possible solutions, but maybe someone else has some input
as well, ideas are welcome...
One thing is clear: This needs to finally get fixed ;)
