Category: None Group: None >Status: Closed Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Noah Richards (omegahamlet) Assigned to: Daniel Atallah (datallah) Summary: New conversation windows spawn underneath taskbar Initial Comment: Gaim version: 2.0.0beta2 Platform: Windows (XP) Steps to Reproduce: 1) Place taskbar on top of screen 2) Start gaim 3) Open new conversation window Window now appears partially obscured by taskbar. In windows, if the taskbar is placed at the top of the screen, new conversation windows spawn at 0,0, which is underneath the taskbar. This is actually more of an issue with gtk on windows, but it would be nice if gaim would work around this. It could be fixed (I believe) by placing a call to gtk_window_set_position in gtconv.c: Add (somewhere after gtk_window_new in GaimGtkWindow * gaim_gtk_conv_window_new()): gtk_window_set_position(GTK_WINDOW(win->window), GTK_WIN_POS_CENTER); This will position new windows in the center of the screen. Possibly not what the desired outcome is, but it would at least keep the window from being covered by a taskbar on the top or left-hand side of the screen. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Daniel Atallah (datallah) Date: 2006-02-27 09:46 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=325843 This is not a Gaim bug, but a bug in GTK+, the widget toolkit used by Gaim.
