[Bug 1521302] Re: gnome-terminal maximize than un-maximize behaves odd

[Fred Cooke]

This bug report was quite helpful for me. I have this exact symptom, but
in LXDE using openbox (3.6.1-1ubuntu2) in Lubuntu. Primarily with gnome-
terminal, also. In particular, the hint about the window resizing
correctly, then jumping back up, and the patch itself reordering the
events sent to the window helped as I could verify the double movement
as I can see a flicker the first time, and no flicker subsequent times
(because both states are large/black). I'll try to follow up with
openbox for a fix, however it seems to me that the VTE/gnome-terminal
code is also a bit iffy to be affected in this way when little else
seems to be.

[Brian Murray]

Hello Scott, or anyone else affected,

Accepted compiz into xenial-proposed. The package will build now and be
available at
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/compiz/1:0.9.12.2+16.04.20160526-0ubuntu1
in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package.  See
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to
enable and use -proposed.  Your feedback will aid us getting this update
out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug,
mentioning the version of the package you tested, and change the tag
from verification-needed to verification-done. If it does not fix the
bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to
verification-failed.  In either case, details of your testing will help
us make a better decision.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification .  Thank you in
advance!

I have this problem with Google Chrome too and with more programs. This
problem seems to be with compiz because in Gnome Shell maximize - un-
maximize works fine. Please fix this anoying issue because I can't

[Bug 1521302] Re: gnome-terminal maximize than un-maximize behaves odd

[Treviño]

Robert, yes... That's the fix (as always the one-line changers are the
ones involved in tricky cases like this one).

I've written a little on the merge proposal, but that stateChangeNotify
call causes unity to readd the decorations to the window (since when
there are none when maximized), and thus to request the window to be
resized to occupy the space = workspace - windows extents size.

What basically happens in a buggy state is:
 1. Compiz tells the window to unmaximize
 2. Unity tells the window to resize to cover the maximized are + decorations
 3. Window restores, going back to the old geometries, and notifies compiz
 3. Compiz receives the notification from the window with the new geometries
 4. Compiz confirms the new restored geometries sending them back to the window.

However, while point 2. is the one causing problems the fact is that
some windows (g-t, emacs: probably the ones with embedded widgets which
take more to resize) seem to ignore the new correct geometries that we
send back to the window, we basically send two events almost together
and the 2nd one seems to be discarded by these.

Now, inverting points 2. and 1. we avoid sending to the window to use a
maximized space after that we said that we want it restored.

All this is quite racey, and I still have some doubt about some gtk3
involvement, since while it's true we're sending them confusing stuff,
they shouldn't ignore our last request.

[Bug 1521302] Re: gnome-terminal maximize than un-maximize behaves odd

[Egmont Koblinger]

Please do NOT promote the usage of Terminator (as it is found in
Xenial).

Terminator uses a much older version of the same terminal emulation
widget (VTE) than gnome-terminal, which contains way more bugs and lacks
plenty of useful features present in newer versions. You might get a
superior experience when unmaximizing, but will get an inferior one at
many-many other aspects.

If anything along these lines, I can recommend trying Terminator's gtk3
bzr branch, or Terminix (neither one shipped by Xenial).

[Bug 1521302] Re: gnome-terminal maximize than un-maximize behaves odd

[denos]

While the Ubuntu team works on this (thanks!), there is a workaround:
use another terminal.

For example, terminator has 100% feature overlap for what I need and works with 
F11 / maximize
sudo apt-get install terminator

But you want your terminal to launch from ctrl-alt-t? That's controlled by the 
link at:
/usr/bin/x-terminal-emulator

But you need to launch it with command line arguments (eg. --geometry)?
Point the link at a shell script that launches your terminal with the
arguments you need.

Details on setting the default terminal:
http://askubuntu.com/questions/70540/how-can-i-set-default-terminal-used-in-unity

I don't want to clutter this bug report up with unrelated discussion, so
please don't respond to this comment. It's just intended to help those
of you (like me) who rely on the functionality that the Ubuntu team is
working to fix.

This is the case... There's actually a race of events. Not really sure
if it's all unity fault or even gtk not properly handling two events at
time, as we send it two configure requests, but I guess we're going to
change the way unity/compiz (as the last one is affected also without
unity) to behave in a way it couldn't confuse toolkits.

I can not reproduce this with mutter(Gnome-Shell) or metacity (Gnome-
Flashback) session. However it is happening Flashback(compiz) session.
So I am thinking it has something to do with compiz.

[Bug 1521302] Re: gnome-terminal maximize than un-maximize behaves odd

[Martin Lund]

Doing some gdb debugging setting a breakpoint in gnome-terminals
terminal-window.c:terminal_window_update_size() reveals that the
terminal window does indeed minimize to its original windows size but
then somehow up sizes to full window.

Sometimes I have also seen that the issue goes away when gdb debugging
which might indicate a sequence/timing issue but I wouldn't trust that
finding entirely.

I'm seeing the exact same issue after upgrading to Ubuntu 16.04 LTS.

I share the frustration - I'm using this feature all the time.

(@V.K.: I absolutely share your frustration. For me #1532226 (a really
critical issue, reported early January, they began working on it late
March, no result whatsoever so far) will make me switch to another
distro as soon as I find the time.)

[Bug 1521302] Re: gnome-terminal maximize than un-maximize behaves odd

[V. K.]

Ubuntu/unity is going down the drain. Bugs such as these impair
productivity for MONTHS and nobody seems to care. What good are shiny
new features developed every six months if you cannot stabilize your
platform and make it actually USABLE to power users?

This, along with broken Alt-Tab behavior reported in #1568242 are a
serious deal breaker, if we have to fight the interface to actually get
ANY work done...

Goodbye Ubuntu, it was nice knowing you. You're a collection of shiny
bells and whistles with zero value to power users.

[Bug 1521302] Re: gnome-terminal maximize than un-maximize behaves odd

[Jaromir Obr]

An annoying bug happening to me since I upgraded Ubuntu from 15.10 to 16.04. So 
it seems to be a regression in 16.04.
Other applications I tried are not affected.

I'm running GNOME Terminal 3.18.3, unity 7.4.0+16.04.20160415-0ubuntu1

[Bug 1521302] Re: gnome-terminal maximize than un-maximize behaves odd

[LGB [Gábor Lénárt]]

Indeed, I use tons of terminals in my work, and I often need 
maximize/unmaximize operations, now it makes my life quite hard :(
This was my original bug-report, which is now considered as duplication of this 
bug: #1573563

(i know that isnt' helpful, but this bug is so annoying to me, and it
seems likely to be annoying to even normal users who hit maximize of a
terminal and then try to un-maximize it).
