After a resize my handler is called, but the x and y values in the XConfigureEvent structure are the x and y values before the resize. However, XGetGeometry reports the correct position of the window (I'm comparing values translated to root coordinates.) This occurs in an R3 server on a DG AViiON and an NCD X terminal. Trying an R4 server on a Sun 3/50 I find that the value reported is correct, so it looks like this is a fixed bug. Could somebody please confirm this? Also, while trying out two window managers (under R4) I think I may have run across a twm bug. When I move a window with mwm (Motif Window Manager) the x and y in the event generated by mwm match the x and y obtained from XGetGeometry. But, the x and y in twm's event are both three less than the values obtained from XGetGeometry. It looks like twm is reporting the incorrect values. I don't think I have a patched version of twm so it is possible that this bug has been fixed. |\ Dave Brennan | \____oo_ brennan@rtp.dg.com =========================================((__| /___> ...rti!dg-rtp!brennan User Interfaces, Data General | // daveb@rpitsmts.bitnet Research Triangle Park, NC |// Phone: (919) 248-6330
