>From the spec, under the _NET_WM_STATE section: "A Client wishing to change the state of a window MUST send a _NET_WM_STATE client message to the root window" and (after the individual states are listed) "To change the state of a mapped window, a Client MUST send a _NET_WM_STATE client message to the root window" I interpret those sentences in the spec to mean that we should (or at least can) ignore you setting the state directly on the window. Did I understand that right? Cheers, Elijah _______________________________________________ wm-spec-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/wm-spec-list
