Description Elijah Newren 2005-07-29 20:30:52 UTC
- Open Gedit
- Manually shrink it as much as possible (has a minimum size hint of 373x204
  for me)
- Hit Alt+F8
- Hit left key
- Hold down the right key, in an attempt to shrink the window further

Note that the window moves to the right instead of holding its position and
size.  Looks like another annoying constraints issue.  (Found while testing bug
310888, as the same issue happens for shift+arrow snap resizing--well, it
happens once snap resizing is fixed with Ray's patch anyway)

Note this only seems to be an issue in opaque resize mode.  Wireframe mode
doesn't exhibit the problem.
Comment 2 Christian Kirbach 2005-07-30 09:55:29 UTC
Confirming this with metacity 2.10.2
