Hello All,
I have been working on the design-aspects to make a Window
Manager multiscreen-aware [wherein, a single CPU has 2 or more
monitors connected to itself via a dual-head VGA card or
2 separate VGA cards]. The Window Manager is Sawfish,
[ which comes with Gnome on Linux ]. I was developing a
prototype for evaluation [ by making changes in Sawfish-1.0.1].
A practical problem that I am facing is related to
frame-generation of client-windows. This is related to the
external bordering [including title-bar, close/resize buttons],
of a client-window which is handled by the Window-manager.
The problem is that the frame for a client-window is not
being generated if it is on a non-default screen
[:0.1 OR :0.2 OR :0.3], whereas the frames for windows on the
DefaultScreen [:0.0] are being generated.
This is related to the manner in which X library calls are made
and their behaviour. Some aspect is missing, which is the root
cause of this problem.
- I would like to hear some suggestions in this regard, 'coz this is
related to "X" behaviour and knowledge of "X" library API.
- Kindly let me know your ideas to solve this problem
- Thank you very much...
- Would be grateful to receive replies at the following address :

would come through.
