On top of this two function, I did try to add some new api on directfb.h ( my version ) e.g. IDirectFBWindow_Maximize .. I think this is not a good way to handle it .... and I'm thinking maybe extending unique for doing the same thing, but then I need to import unique in gdkdfb in order to make that work... either way we need extra api for it to work, which is the direction you are expecting? >> >> What there for is to prevent a dialog or important window from being >> hidden >> by its parent window.

I think Mike get a point is moving people toward one direction one step at a time, in order for people to start building directfb way, we need more user. And having a min set of application that allow some normal daily operation will able to make a distribution to live e.g. email, broswer, im and term with gdkdfb I move some gtk application to directfb very quickly, even it is not the best solution, but at time when people used to not having X protocol for simple light and small desktop system, I think more application will be automagically moving toward LiTE and directfb native porting. > But to use them there should be some new public interfaces to keep the > IDirectFBWindow and others clean. > > Drag'n'Drop might be provided by another new interface, implemented > using Unique's WM library, that already exists. > One extra question, for mouse motion..since X and Y is seperated... my window moving become ZigZag down the line. Is there any way to fix that?
