Hi all,
I recently got a laptop and use an attached monitor. Last week started
using NB on it (13). Starting a null module project from NB I observed
some unexpected window handling.I'm pretty sure this is NB and not the
window manager (ubuntu, gnome). I took a quick look at
platform/core.windows, and
.../userdir/config/Windows2Local/WindowManager.wswmgr is interesting.
/Is this expected/, recently changed, exactly where to look in
core-windows, any insights, ... I won't be able to dig in, at least for
a while, appreciate any info that helps understand and pinpoints the
issues, so someone has a head start in fixing the problems.
Weird behavior:
1. NetBeans comes up in full screen mode on laptop screen. Double click
title bar, normal mode, size reduced; exit NB.
2. Start NB, back to full screen mode.
3. Double click title bar, normal mode. Drag bottom border up to reduce
height. Exit NB.
4. Start NB, stays in normal mode, retains size.
5. Drag bottom to increase height to a little more than it was after
normal mode in step 1. Exit NB
6. Start NB, full screen mode.
2. and 6. are bugs (IMO). I don't know if this is recent or long time
behavior. BTW, at the end of steps 1 and 5, while NB is not running,
WindowManager.wswmgr shows normal mode (not full screen).
If I drag NB over to the attached monitor, the same type of behavior is
observed. If the main window gets higher than NB likes, and you exit and
re-start NB it goes to full screen mode on the attached monitor.
While NB main window is on the attached monitor, dialogs that are
started usually go to the laptop screen. I say "usually" because it may
be I moved stuff around, to the attached monitor and NB remembered.This
recent discussion from users
[platform] DialogDescriptor/NotifyDescriptor and multiple
screenshttps://lists.apache.org/thread/7hphr7okvz5qs1q8n3f52nytooc9zs6w
is probably related.
