[Bug 862231] Re: Compiz Window Decorator fails on Evolution Compose New Email

 

This seems to have something to do with Compiz & Fullscreen requests.  I
created a brand new user and it did the same thing.  However I tested at
home (on a much bigger screen, dual head Nvidia set-up for video
playback) and couldn't reproduce.

Testing again (on new profile) and when changing to metacity (using
--replace) the terminal displayed issues about a fullscreen window.
Changed back to compiz and through CCSM disable "unredirect full screen
windows" in OpenGL and Workarounds.  This solved the bug.  Re-enabled
both settings and it still works as expected.  If it re-appears I'll
test again to see which work-around solved it.

Title:
  Compiz Window Decorator fails on Evolution Compose New Email

Status in “compiz” package in Ubuntu:
  New
Status in “evolution” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Oneiric Beta 2:

  How to reproduce:

  1 - If you new emails default to maximised, open a new window and the
  window will be greater than the unity panel and launcher with no
  window decoration (see maximised.png).  [The only way to close this is
  with Escape, resizing or unmaximising buttons / keys don't work, Alt-
  Tab doesn't control it properly either]

  2 - If there are decorations initially on the maximised window, un-
  maximising the window creates a window with no decorations (see
  unmax.png)

  Expected results:  Compose window has full decoration just like in
  Unity-2d or Metacity (see metacity.png)
