Public bug reported: After scanning, by default, xsane displays the image attempting to do some sort of maximized mode that does not play well with Compiz; it overlaps the gnome panel and offers no way of resizing the output window, which is very unfriendly to newbies. Some composite-based apps like AWN still display windows on top of it (so if xsane was attempting a "Full Screen mode" then something is wrong with it).
This can be "fixed" by doing xsane > Preferences > Setup > Display > uncheck "Main Window Size Fixed" I think this was an unfortunate default choice; this is with Ubuntu 7.10; previous releases didn't have this problem. ** Affects: xsane (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- After scanning, xsane display of image in FullScreen (default) does not play well with Compiz https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/157854 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
