• Status: RESOLVED UPSTREAM
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description jochen 2004-09-11 02:06:55 UTC]

Could you please file this upstream at bugs.freedesktop.org, so everyone benefits?

[Comment 4 jochen 2004-09-15 00:25:24 UTC]

could you do that? I don't have a bugzilla account there and i don't feel like creating yet another one

Sure, but I'll have to act as a go-between for any questions or requests they have.

I corrected the patch. Now it working.
New arg: -translucence (-tr)
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1392 error fixed (bad argument handling)
Some reason (I don't know why) the Window ID (from the WM, at the command line) is not equal  with the event's Window ID (from the mouse press). But the WM's id's 2nd parent the mouse event's ID.
