Hide Forgot
From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.1) Gecko/20020826 Description of problem: It would be nice if sawfish 'remembered' the last size of a window and where the window was positioned on the desktop. Maybe there could be options in the window's pulldown menu like in previous versions. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: This is an enhancement request. Additional info:
We are providing sawfish "as-is" so closing all feature requests for it. I would forward this bug to gnome.org for you, but I'm assuming the feature was deliberately removed. You might want to search bugzilla.gnome.org or Sawfish mailing list for previous discussion.
Call me crazy, but today I learned that I'm not using sawfish! It's been metacity all along. Is there a way for metacity to remember the previous position of a window?
See http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=81802 Also there's a fair bit of discussion in wm-spec-list@gnome.org archives. Short answer though is that it can't be implemented reliably without some new conventions in the WM spec. In any case, 81802 on gnome.org tracks this issue.
