Public bug reported: Binary package hint: compiz
I apologise for the cryptic title. I'll try to explain. I use the "Classic" gnome-panels desktop with Compiz. Several applications provide Notification area icons that if clicked will toggle the visibility of the application (gwibber, banshee, liferea, etc). When Compiz is used, each visibility cycle (from visible to invisible to visible) moves the window to the right by 7px. I suggest that something in the Window Manager is reporting or storing an incorrect z,y coordinate. This is constant for all applications that provide Notification Area icons to toggle visibility. Standard minimising/maximising does not illicit this bug. Things work as they should under Metacity, hence I'm filing this against Compiz.
