Subject: bug#62135: xterm.c: (x_set_offset)
Date: Sun, 12 Mar 2023 06:58:43 +0530 (IST)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230312.065843.1304315041062918300.enometh@meer.net> (raw)


While investingating some persistent placements at 0x0 by some wm, I was
looking at x-set-offset, (which gets called via x_make_frame_visible).

In the code below there is a comment that documents the role of the
change_gravity argument.  When called from x_make_frame_visible the
parameter is set to 0, so as not to do anything. However lines
22713-22720 perform an unconditional move window, which happens in
this code path even before the XWindow the mapped.

1) Shouldn't these lines be protected by a "if (change_gravity != 0) {
... }" conditional?

My surmise is that most wms ignore the call to XMoveWindow because it is
unmapped but at least wayfire (on Xwayland) persistently seems to
position it at 0, 0 as the code calls it.

Also the 0x0 placement only happens on non-gtk builds, because I think
there is another bug in lines 22689-22702. x_gtk_use_window_move is
always true and gtk builds exit x_set_offset before reaching that
line.

I hope martin can pick this up from here and take a look?
