[Bug 155101] Re: Applications that save position re-open at wrong location (shifted by window decorations)

 

I still experience this in Maverick, with applications which can be
minimized to tray, such as Pidgin and Gwibber. I've struggled with more
show-stopping display bugs, so I haven't really followed if this
particular behaviour has remained unchanged through 8.xx and 9.xx
versions.

Unlike described in earlier comments, in my case the affected windows
move upwards and and a little to the left with each reopening,
eventually causing the titlebar to end up behind the top panel. If one
keeps clicking the tray icon to close and reopen the window, eventually
Compiz (or whatever causes this) seems to realize its mistake and pops
the window back below the panel instead of behind it.

Apparently the time between closing and reopening matters; If the
closing animation is still running when the window is reopened, the
positioning always goes wrong.
