Description Steven W. Orr 2008-11-10 18:22:53 UTC 
Version:            (using KDE 4.1.2)
Compiler:          NA 
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Fedora RPMs

Running Fedora 9 withe the supplied 4.1.2 of kde. 

Under System Settings -> Window Behavior -> Window Behavior -> Moving -> Display Window Geometry when moving or resizing. The box is checked. When I move or resize a window I do not get the geometry feedback.

I can confirm that this also happens in r882121 built from the sources.

The window resizing code probably needs a general overhaul, since the resizing outline is also quite broken, see bug 174434 + duplicates.
Comment 2 Steven W. Orr 2009-02-17 18:04:55 UTC 
I just installed 4.2, specifically, kdebase-4.2.0-2.fc10.i386. There is no change in the problem.
