[Bug 1516323] Re: With compositing off some apps have a huge black border

 

Do you see this problem when you turn off compositing manager and
restart program? All your mentioned programs are CSD windows and I think
GTK+ does not support toggling compositing mode - you need to restart
program.

If you have same problem after restarting application then problem might
be in theme you use. For example it might miss .solid-csd styling that
is used when application is used without compositing manager.

In short this is not metacity bug.
