On my 1280x800 laptop LCD, I get this from xwininfo: xwininfo: Window id: 0x4600027 "Liferea" Absolute upper-left X: 0 Absolute upper-left Y: 41 Relative upper-left X: 0 Relative upper-left Y: 18 Width: 1280 Height: 738 Depth: 24 Visual Class: TrueColor Border width: 0 Class: InputOutput Colormap: 0x20 (installed) Bit Gravity State: NorthWestGravity Window Gravity State: NorthWestGravity Backing Store State: NotUseful Save Under State: no Map State: IsViewable Override Redirect State: no Corners: +0+41 -0+41 -0-21 +0-21 -geometry 1280x738+0-21 > Looking at the code, last-vpane-pos is the size of the feedlist > area.
