Why is the size of windows off by 226x238 if defined via the Window Rules?
- by Bobby
I have installed Sawfish 1.8.2 from source on my new Ubuntu 12.04 installation following the Debian instructions, but I had this problem also with the stock 1.5.3.
Whenever I define dimensions in the Window Rules for a window, the size is off by exactly 226x238 pixels, which means that 100x100 turns into 326x328. That's a very odd behavior, given that Sawfish is saving and loading the dimensions of the windows correctly (if saved via the window menu).
Some additional system information:
$ uname -a
Linux Dagon 3.2.0-24-generic-pae #39-Ubuntu SMP Mon May 21 18:54:21 UTC 2012 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux
$ sawfish --version
sawfish version 1.8.2
nvidia proprietary driver, 9600GT
Two monitors, 1920x1080 + 1440x900 in one session.
Positionng the windows is working fine, only the dimensions are off by that odd number. Does somebody have an idea why?
