Version: (using KDE KDE 3.3.1) Installed from: Debian testing/unstable Packages OS: Linux With the version of kwin included in KDE 3.3.1 xemacs windows, after having been maximised, will not restore to their former size and location. The window frame continues to display the maximise button after maximisation. When the maximise button is clicking again after maximisation it seems to flicker to the restore button and then back to maximise. The window doesn't change size.
Xemacs bug - it tries to fight geometry setting from KWin.
I've got this problem with every maximised windows in kde (konsole, konqueror...)
I don't, so I'm afraid you need to provide more information that just stating that it doesn't work for you.
I've got the problem too, on 3.3.2. It appears on every maximized window. Earlier i played around with the windows settings (appearing after title bar -> right click -> extended -> settings for special windows). Maybe it has to do with that? ... I'll look for that in another user account soon.
This bug is propably closely related to Bug #53784.
Hm, strange... I just set up another testing account. When i logged in for the first time the KDE setup tool appeared (in keramik style and with yellow title bar). Clicking on its - i.e. the first window of the window sequence - maximize button resulted in maximizing the window and keeping a maximize button in the title bar. No minimize button appeared. But clicking on the maximize button again, restored the previous windows size. After clicking through the setup tool i tried to reproduces that behaviour with other windows, to get some screen shots of the behaviour, but it behaved differently then: Maximized Konqueror had no maximize button but the - correct - restore button. Maximized help system window the same. To verify if playing around with the settings for special windows have any effect on the criticized behaviour, i did a setup of the help system window, closed it, restarted it. But apparently that didn't have any effect on the maximize/restore (button) behaviour. Hm, but at least now we know that the misplaced maximize button already appears in a newly set up account, during the KDE setup process. After that it possibly depends on user behaviour. PS: This bug is propably closely related to Bug #53784.
This problem MAY have been fixed in xemacs 21.4.17 as the changelog states that "Fix: Make window maximization work under Metacity." I'm using 21.4.17 under metacity at the moment and maximisation works.
