I will try to do this before end of this month.

download and unpack file:

  http://geo.hmg.inpg.fr/~janek/wine.tar.bz2

execute command in a terminal:

  wine c:/ac15/acad.exe

Two windows will open, hit 'cancel' in the "Startup" window to close
it. Only the main window will remain. Now you can switch viewports
(or even draw something inside autocad). When you switch to a viewport on
which autocad window is not even partially visible - the window will
disappear forewer. Now you can only hit ctrl-c in the terminal to
terminate wine app.

If you don't close "startup" window both wine windows will not
disappear (but you can't work in autocad either, since "startup" has
focus).


To test this with sawfish, you got to enable viewports by adding
those 2 lines to ~/.sawfishrc

  (define-special-variable viewport-dimensions '(6 . 4)
    "Size of each virtual workspace.")

then you can switch viewports for example with sawifish pager (which
is ran by default if its debian package is installed). The 6 . 4 is
the number of viewports: 6x4=24 (that's just my personal
configuration).


let me know how it worked for you :)
