GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 764722
Child window placement broken between gtk3.20.1 and gtk3.20.2
Last modified: 2016-04-11 18:14:59 UTC
On slower systems running MYS2 I see that child windows are now all placed on top left (0,0) position of the screen. This is reproducable by running "gtk3-demo/Dialogs and Message Boxes/Message Dialog" on a newly upgraded MSYS2 running a virtual Windows through for instance VirtualBox. When running MSYS2 on native Windows, window placement is sometimes correct, but not in all cases. So far experienced with all dialogs, tooltips, and windows of type popup (normal window is not tested). This issue does not happen when I downgrade to gtk3 version 3.20.1.
This should be fixed with this patch: https://git.gnome.org/browse/gtk+/commit/?h=gtk-3-20&id=f233609c9328d03222a19e37db78caedb8b7e9c5 Thanks for reporting it.
*** Bug 764730 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
I applied the patch (https://git.gnome.org/browse/gtk+/commit/?h=gtk-3-20&id=f233609c9328d03222a19e37db78caedb8b7e9c5) to MSYS2's gtk3.20.2 and the problem is still present.
Although, the patch https://git.gnome.org/browse/gtk%2B/commit/?id=a91237d65e91cf7dc1581fabf9245ca89e988088 fixes this issue.
