[Bug 1501039] Re: Xmir from overlay PPA no longer tells client about resize events in non-rootless

 

Note: I'm still working on improving this. Window resizing for the non-
rootless case is still quite unstable and glitchy (because it changes
the whole screen size and not just a window). I recommend using
-rootless if you can which is both stable and fast at resizing. However
I will continue to try and solve the resizing problems with non-
rootless...

Title:
  Xmir from overlay PPA no longer tells client about resize events in
  non-rootless

Status in canonical-pocket-desktop:

Status in xorg-server package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  Using Xmir from the Stable Overlay PPA in non-rootless mode, when I
  resize an Xmir window in Unity 8, the resize event is not passed to
  the client, which is Compiz in this case.

  I have Compiz set up to use the Place plugin and maximize the window,
  so when the resize event occurs, Compiz will resize the window.  This
  worked before with the previous version of Xmir.
