tc-3.4: wbarconf does not open properly with openbox wm
« on: December 18, 2010, 06:11:55 PM »
I don't get a window when invoking wbarconf, all I see is a tiny piece of title bar and an equally tiny piece of bottom window border. Basically, a window with zero width dn no content, it would seem. Looks like a fat exclamation mark on the screen.

Disabling openbox, wbarconf works as expected.

I didn't try this in the 3.4 rcs. In tc-3.3, wbarconfig worked as expected.

(1) I can confirm the issue also for 'icewm', 'wmaker', 'wmii', and 'xfwm4'. The latter two seem to behave slightly differently (e.g. not showing anything), but the impact is the same (i.e. no 'wbarconf' window to be available for the user).
 
(2) I've also done a quick test with 'fluxbox', 'hackedbox', 'evilwm', 'tinywm', 'windowlab', 'aewm++', 'flwm', 'jwm', and 'i3'. And those WM appear to work just fine.

(3) The source file available (i.e. 'wbarcanf.fl') had already been updated, so I had no chance to see what has changed in the code.

Here's a patch that fixes this:

Code: [Select]
