Guake is always center aligned vertically instead of top align #2177

Open madhur opened 1 year ago

Be sure to check the existing issues (both open and closed!), and make sure you are running the latest version of Guake.

For how to run the latest Guake in your computer, please refer to Install from source.

Describe the bug

Earlier Guake used to be always top aligned. With the new version, it seems to be center aligned vertically and there seems to be no way to change this behavior.

Expected behavior

Guake should be top align by default.

Actual behavior

Guake is center aligned

To Reproduce

Run Guake 3.11.dev0

Make the height slider slightly smaller so as to not let Guake occupy the whole screen

Please run $ guake --support, and paste the results here. Don't put backticks (`) around it! The output already contains Markdown formatting. And make sure you run the command OUTSIDE the Guake.

x guake --support [☸ eks-pt (mec)]

also experiencing this issue, to slightly mitigate (but not solve):

  • set displacement in pixels to 1
  • don't set the width to 100%

However, doing this causes the guake window to 'crawl' down after toggling guake visibility.

Same problem here :/

This solution does not work for me.

same problem here.

I'm using archlinux, and downgrading guake from guake-3.10-1-any.pkg.tar.zst => guake-3.9.0-3-any.pkg.tar.zst solves this problem.

So, it must be that something added recently causes this.

I'm freaking out, same problem.

To the ones observing a regression, the only commit that seems to be related that was made in the time frame is, deffa2b2f9f59570faba32d2b1af715b7d41f331, I've made a branch at https://github.com/Davidy22/guake/tree/revert with that commit reverted, if it's reported that this resolves the regression then I'll merge the revert.

@Davidy22 I can confirm this fixes it. The problem persists on master.

Having this issue as well. I'm finding a weird side effect is that if I go fullscreen, that works, but coming out of fullscreen, it stays the same fullscreen size, but the top-left corner goes back to where it was when it wasn't fullscreen, and centered on the screen, resulting in part of it flowing off screen.

Toggle it off and on fixes this, but still annoying.
