So, will I just have to do that as a work around or does that suggest something that can be done so it will work out of the box? One note: my Mga6 machine, where the program works with no problem is a small laptop with just Intel graphics. My main Mga7 machine is an nVidia Optimus laptop with the proprietary nVidia driver (which I have needed in order to get edge bindings to work properly even with the Intel on-board graphics as default). ___ enlightenment-users mailing list enlightenment-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/enlightenment-users

I have to not write these things late at night. try another compositor - icewm is not a compositing wm. have your tried resizing the window? restart e while it is up?
