Title:
gtk application window resized bigger than screen makes the
application useless
Status in “metacity” package in Ubuntu:
Expired
Bug description:
GTK has a feature to resize the window so it fits the content. This is
usually a good feature, but in case the content is bigger than the
screen the window jumps back and forth by just left clicking. The only
way to exit a such program is to press Alt+F4; the mouse can't be
used. (Left clicking the close button makes the window jump.)
The application QtOctave is one example. On a screen of 1024x600
(netbook), this application can't be used. See Screenshots. I only
press left mouse button between the images. If I press twice I get the
same position of the window again.
This happens also if you use Anjuta and have many tabs downwards.
