I have a similar issue with wmctrl in 15.04. Trying to place a window in the top-left corner, right next to the launcher, doesn't work.
"wmctrl -r :ACTIVE: -e 1,0,0,1240,1034" will place the window about 5 pixels to the right no matter what. If I try to place a window on the top right corner "wmctrl -r :ACTIVE: -e 1,1280,0,640,360" it's 5 pixels below where it should be. I can't find any explanation and I can confirm it works in other desktops. Other operations like "wmctrl -r :ACTIVE: -e 1,1280,720,640,335" work as expected, though, it just seems to have something against the left edge and top edge. I am not sure if this is the right bug to post into, but they are pretty similar so they might be related. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/971147 Title: xdotool and wmctrl don't move and resize windows after they are (semi)maximized To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity/+bug/971147/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
