[Bug 818208] [NEW] Ubuntu new Window Positionating bug

 

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

Hi Everyone,
I've been using Ubuntu since the 1ª day, but I really didn't had the time to report this bug who is annoying me a lot.

I use a lot the "Mail" applet in the Gnome/Unity top bar. The with this
I open always Chat (Empathy) so I can talk with msn and facebook
friends... But this is not the problem.

The problem come when the Window is open. Because his position is never
the same that earlier. For example, Imagine I open a new window and make
it at 50px from the right border of the screen. When I open it again the
window is more at the right (let's say 45px), the next time 40px etc....

My English is not really good, so I don't know if you understand me
well. So I made a video when I open and close the same Window many times
to show the Bug in action (when looking at the video please take a look
at the empathy window and his separation with the right border of the
screen).

I am a programmer, and if I can help solve the problem by code I will be
very glade, the problem is that I have problems to found the guilty
piece of code to try to make a patch :S...

Thanks in Advance,
Luis Da Costa
