When resizing a window combination I give all windows but at most one a multiple of the default character size. > Martin, do we have any important use cases beyond fullscreen where > pixel-unit resize of frames is really necessary? We have three use cases: Requests from tiling WMs, maximization requests which leave the taskbar visible and are triggered, for example, when the taskbar gets resized or auto-hidden, and fullscreen requests which ask for hiding everything else. IIUC the most common ones are maximization requests. martin
