"That's not a reason to make this bug invalid then, is it?" Not really (and it wasn't me who did that). It's a good solution that we force every application to set WM_WINDOW_ROLE properly and handle the saving and restoring of position in the window manager.
Btw. there needs to be a maximum number of window types remembered (like 500) or the database would grow forever due to applications that set WM_WINDOW_ROLE to include random numbers (I'm looking at you, gnome- terminal) and similar unexpected things. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to metacity in ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/124315 Title: Remember+restore window position of applications if WM_WINDOW_ROLE set -- desktop-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
