9 I think I've found a bug, which I can reproduce as follows:
11 open konqueror (maybe other kde applications work too, i don't know).
12 open a web page on it.
13 open the 'print...' dialog
14 tell it to print it to a file
15 click on the folder icon, to browse for the file to print it to
16 select a file and press save
17 click AGAIN on the folder icon.
19 The browser opens, but it does as an iconized window.
21 I just recompiled code from cvs to be sure it wasn't fixed. If I can be
22 of more help on this, tell me so.

77 After having taken a peek at what is does in e16.8 on "alltray xterm",
78 the short version is that it uses XMapWindow() to map the client (which
79 actually is an alltray window containing the reparented real client)
80 first time. After that, when having been iconified, it sends a
81 _NET_ACTIVE_WINDOW client message to deiconify.
95 dj2 raster, heres an interesting bug for you
96 dj2 i have twinview setup on my box
97 dj2 i can move the mouse between the 2 heads and e17 sees tehm as 2 heads
99 dj2 if i try to drag a window between the 2 heads (say from left to right)
100 the mouse will lmove as expected
101 dj2 but when the window hits the right edge of the left monitor it will
102 appear again off the left edge of the left monitor
103 dj2 tho the mouse is now on the right monitor
105 raster see how many screens u have
107 raster is there a screen #1 ?
108 dj2 number of screens: 2
109 dj2 yea screen #0 and screen #1
111 NB: in multihead if the mouse exits a screen during move or resize - either
112 disallow it (warp back to previous position ) or limit resize/move

119 Subject: [E-devel] Crasher ... switch to an app that's closing

125 I have a sort-of reproducible bug.
126 If you try to switch to an app which is in the process of shutting down,
127 and you do it at *just* the right moment, Enlightenment-0.17 will crash.
128 I've done this only about 3 times over probably more than a year of usage.
130 This particular time, I hit the 'close' button on a vmware-player
131 window. When this app gets the close signal, it actually minimises
132 itself, and then proceeds to shutdown ( which includes saving the
133 current VM state, which takes a while, hence the minimising first ).
134 After hitting close, I went to switch to another app by middle-clicking
135 on the desktop, but I missed the other app, and hit vmware-player
136 accidentally. Then everything came down in a heap :)
138 Sorry I don't have any debugging info.
