You can override the window manager if you must and place the window yourself but the rest is normally to annoy the users even more than watching windows change. Plus if they have multiple screens or displays onto one screen you are almost guaranteed to do something daft like land the splash screen across a monitor join. Why not just unmap the old windows, open a simple progress bar in a window the user can hide and defer mapping the new windows until everything is actually ready ? _______________________________________________ [email protected]: X.Org support Archives: http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg Info: http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg Your subscription address: [email protected]
