Josh, Yes, the issue is related to the position of the Trusted Sripe. In CDE, where it is on the bottom, we reduced the screen height so that applications know not to try to render in the obscured area. We can't do that for TJDS with the stripe at the top since we do want applications to be able to render at the bottom of the screen. We have been experimenting with moving the stripe to the bottom for TJDS, It was at the bottom in Nevada for a while. But there was a problem with resizing after changing the screen resolution: a race condition between the GNOME panel and the Trusted Stripe.
We are considering making the Trusted Stripe position configurable, but we still need to make it work when the screen is resized. --Glenn Josh Fisher wrote: > Does XDisplayHeight for Trusted JDS take into account the trusted path > security bar? > > This applies to developing applications on Trusted JDS in Solaris 10 5/08 x86 > with Trusted Extensions.
