Description Porcelain Mouse 2016-06-29 19:22:59 UTC 
Applications that use client decorations do not allow window actions raise, lower, or shade.  In other environments, these actions are supported via title-bar buttons, but also other mouse-click actions and hot-keys.  While the shortcuts to raise/lower still function, title interactions are convenient and a long standing behavior that is missed.  The shade behavior is completely missing and cannot be affected by any means.

Similar problems have been reported against mutter under Wayland, but it is a general problem outside Wayland, too.

Could you please describe what should be done in libchamplain regarding this? IMO this is something that should be reported against GTK and not libchamplain (which is a map widget). Or am I missing something?
Comment 2 Porcelain Mouse 2016-07-06 00:07:26 UTC 
Ah, I see, gtk+ isn't in the 'core' group.  I figured I should file against gtk+ but didn't see it when submitting the new bug.  Now, I do, so, I'm reassigning it.

NEEDINFO? What info?
Comment 4 Jiri Techet 2017-12-28 11:08:34 UTC 
I set the NEEDINFO when the bug was reported against libchamplain and it seemed not to be related to it (see my previous post). Forgot to change it back to NEW when it got re-assigned. Done now.

Rasiing and lowering work, depending on the windowing system - Wayland doesn't let clients do these things.

Shading is not something that I foresee implementing for client-side decorations - it was only ever a hack that sort-of works for reparenting window managers.
