I posted this issue some time ago.  I have more information now.  Perhaps
someone can help me get to resolution with this new info.  To reiterate,
the issue is in Ubuntu 16.04; some windows launch with the title bar hidden
under the launcher and the desktop title bar.  I can use ALT drag to expose
the information, but that is a nuisance.

I found this solution:

You need to set the appropriate option in the Compiz Place Windows plugin.

    Open CCSM (make sure you have it installed first).
    Find the Place Windows plugin:
    CSSM
    Now, in the options, make sure that smart placement is selected.
    Smarty

This option is usually set by default, but sometimes for some reason it is
not. I am not 100% certain as to the cause (still trying to find it). If
you do not have the place windows plugin, make sure to check that you have
any additional compiz plugins installed in the software centre.

(from: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/compiz/+bug/1303462)

I think I have done as instructed except I do not know what the line
"Smarty" is about.  Smart mode is indicated but no reference to "Smarty".

Clues?

Thanks,

-Denis
