Description Morten Brix Pedersen 2001-09-10 00:59:02 UTC
Nautilus looks very cool, but it 'overlaps' my Blackbox(a window manager) bar,
so this means that I can't use Nautilus and Blackbox together, because I need
that bar. I don't know whether there is any way to disable that it totally
captures my desktop - I want Nautilus to browse files, nothing else...

The before/after result links in this bug report don't work, at least for me.

Assigning to John Harper as our resident window manager expert. Leaving for Don
to consider priority.

AFAIK blackbox doesn't support the GNOME window manager hints, hence it's lack
of support for the desktop window.

A possible fix could be to check for a gnome-compliant wm running before
creating the desktop window. If none exists then create the window
override-redirect and lower it (this is similar to how the panel used to support
non-compliant wms).

(But this is a hack, and sloppy-focus mode probably still wouldn't work
correctly, see bug #46038)
