Restarting Wingo messes with window sizes #97

Open floren opened 10 years ago

floren commented 10 years ago

Running "Restart" (using Mod4-Shift-r and typing the command) causes windows to be resized to a larger size than they originally were. That is, if I have an xterm running at the default 80x24 size, and I restart Wingo, interior of the window, the part without widgets, will become the size of the 80x24 xterm PLUS the size of the wingo widgets. If I then start a new xterm, it can fit exactly over the text area (non-widgets) of the resized xterm.

See http://i.imgur.com/wv7bEt0.png for an example; the window on the left was created pre-restart, and the window on the right post-restart. I did not re-size the xterm on the left before restarting wingo.

This is a known issue (in my head). And it has a little overlap with issue #6.

Unfortunately I don't have any good workarounds at the moment.

Ok, it doesn't affect me too badly since I restart pretty rarely, but I figured I'd report it. Thanks
