compize on the other hand doesn't reparent the window, so the
behaviour is different.
Yes, but that's avoiding Nadav's question, which was - why is this
something for the program to do?
i woudld expext the folowing line:
XTranslateCoordinates(...,win,root,0,0, &x, &y, ...) ;
XMoveWIndow(win,x,y)
to do nothing.
Then you would be wrong. The "x, y" are supposed to be relative to the
coordinate system in which the window reside. Even without the window
manager override, the above command would not work with reparented windows.
however, it does move the window, by the size of the titlebar ...
Yes, because the route you use is unsupported in a WM environment. Deal
with it.
Again, answer Nadav's question.
