Not compliant with gnome/mutter #34

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Start mutter
2. enable the mutter compositor

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Use the tool in the usual way using gnome and compiz.
Instead of it once started Ardesia's toolbox window (bar) is not accessible by 
the mouse.

If you are using gnome3 I suggest to disable the mutter compositor and use the 
compiz composite manager until the issue will be fixed.

I don't know if it is a mutter bug or an Ardesia one in any case ardesia works 
with many window manager and composite manager and then could be a mutter 
problem. This must be checked.

I post a comment on the problem sended me by email

A lot of people in the future will use mutter. I put to this issue an high 
priority.

Ardesia 0.2 is the only one version that works with mutter

This could be a mutter bug

Alot of patches regarding shapes are done on git in september 2011 
http://git.gnome.org/browse/mutter/. I think that can be the case to try to see 
if Ardesia is compliant with the git mutter code. If it will work this issue 
will be removed. Are there some hackers that can try it?

I have tried it and it is still not working.  The bar comes up but the pen 
becomes totally useless for anything but drawing as there is no way to select 
anything in the dialog.  It just draws over the top of it.

I am seeing same issue where I cannot select any tools.  Does anyone know the 
status of this.  It seems like a great app, but I can only draw in a large red 
brush, and quit via the gnome3 activities on an "invisible window"....

The commit 256 could fix the issue but I am not able to test it because mutter 
and gnome-shell crash at startup on my laptop.

Please if you are using gnome, test it with Ardesia and give me feedback.

The commit 256 comment:
- Better handling of focus, shape and window stack
- Metacity compliant
- Gnome Classic compliant
- Unity compliant
- Could be compliant with gnome-shell
  (I can not test it, gnone shell crash at startup on my laptop)
- Close issue 37
- Could be compliant with mutter
  (I can not test it, mutter crash at startup on my laptop)
  Could close issue 34

Ok, I have test it. I have disabled the xorg proprietary driver and now I'm 
able to runArdesia with mutter and gnome-shell. No extra bugs are found.
