Yeah it's doable, but would be wrong for any use case other than when
you have a fullscreen window manager where the window title is also
somehow visible. I just realized we must be using a fullscreen window
manager, but in a window (!).
So it's a rare use case in theory, but something we should
It's very important to know though; are you seeing "Xmir root window" or
"root xmir"?
Only the former is Xmir. If the latter then it would be Unity8 not
displaying the actual window title (so in that case any Xmir enhancement
would not help).

You received this bug notification because you
it actually says "Xmir root window", which is weird I felt like it used to say
"root xmir".
But i've tried gedit, LO, FFall say "Xmir root window"

Cool. Seems Unity8 has improved since I worked on this last. Before it
wasn't displaying live window titles from the app/Xmir at all, but
getting them from the .desktop file. Though comment #6 suggests that's
partially still true for the system bar; they sound like names from
.desktop files.

ah, i wonder if we should make this a unity8 change?
because I just noticed that the unity8 system bar actually reflects the
application names
"Firefox"
"Gedit
"GIMP Image Editor"
"X-Chat GNOME"
however all the app windows always say "Xmir root window"

we need to do something for users as they don't really care or want to
know that the "Mir surface represents the whole X11 desktop. So it's not
an app window but is the X11 root window."
unfortunately running -rootless we have the splash window problems.
and right, this is exactly what we want

Title:
xapp window should reflect app name rather than "root xmir"
To manage notifications about this bug go
Do you mean "Xmir root window"? If so then that's not a bug. That Mir
surface represents the whole X11 desktop. So it's not an app window but
is the X11 root window.
If you run Xmir -rootless you will get per-app window names as the apps
are actually running in different windows. But the way we
8 matches
