Window forgets unmaximized resolution after move

[tobip]

After moving a maximized window from one screen to another, it "forgot" its unmaximized width and height settings.

Maybe there is a possibility to remember the unmaximized state?

At the moment, after moving a maximized window, and then unmaximizing it, the state gets changed from maximized to unmaximized, but the width and height stay almost the same.

Yeah, I noticed this also.

Needs some investigations. Stay tuned.

Alright.

Well I don't know how the script works, so this is just what I have in my mind: Maybe it's possible to unmaximize the window, then move it to the other screen, and then maximize it, immediately after each other.

For what I remember, this used to be working in the past (because it was one of my expected feature).

The code works exactly like this:

• unmaximize the window (because it's mandatory before moving it)
• compute the relative size of the window with respect to the screen
• move it to the new screen
• resize it to match the same ratio (this allow to nicely handle screens of different sizes)
• maximize it if it was maximized before.

However, the resize step does not seem to work anymore... I opened an issue BurntSushi/xpybutil#15 to get some help.
