Doc Type: Bug Fix
Doc Text:
Previously, when attempting to "snap" a display window into a corner using Windows Vista would cause the window to move back to its original position. Now, an unecessary call in virt-viewer has been removed so that the window can be dragged and "snapped" into position correctly.

Description Tomas Jamrisko 2013-02-19 13:39:06 UTC 
Description of problem:
Resizing a window by using windows 7 resizing to half of a screen (win+left/right arrow; dragging the window to edge of the screen) results in the remote-viewer to briefly correctly set the size (the guest is not yet adjusted), but when resolution on the guest updated to fit the size, the window gets resized to something really small, and the guest gets scaled down, after which there is another another event, which sets the qxl to minimal size and the window gets resized once more

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
mingw-virt-viewer-0.5.3-20
spice-vdagent-0.12.0-4

How reproducible:
Always
Comment 1 Marc-Andre Lureau 2013-03-20 15:43:09 UTC 
it seems to be caused by the call to gtk_window_present(), looking at it.
