Description Lluís 2007-06-12 16:17:59 UTC 
Please describe the problem:
I've tried to use the functionality added by Bug #344521, by compiling from svn metacity and wnck, but wmctrl is unable to move windows to the desired place (although it can resize them), as well as the testcase program attached in the aforementioned bug. In fact the resize is also not working as expected in the testcase program:

  Current geometry: 277,91 724x386
  Current geometry: 277,91 715x401
  Current geometry: 277,91 706x416
  Current geometry: 277,91 697x431
  Current geometry: 277,91 688x446

I've also tried to use that functionality through python-wnck (recompiling from svn both pygtk and gnome-python-desktop), but it is unable to resize nor move the windows.

I'm using gnome 2.18 (debian testing+sid, except for the aforementioned recompiled packages from gnome's svn) on an amd64-like box.

Steps to reproduce:


Actual results:


Expected results:


Does this happen every time?

This is a dupe of bug 448183, isn't it?
Comment 3 Thomas Thurman 2008-02-21 02:08:11 UTC 
Assuming it is for now.
