I don't know where to file this bug upstream, so I'm trying here in the hopes that it will help. xpdf has a switch that enables it to show a PDF in fullscreen. However, when doing this, it seems like xfwm4 resizes it again to keep it within the desktop size. Fluxbox handles this correctly. Olivier Fourdan has replied that this is a bug with xpdf, which seems reasonable. Any hopes of getting it fixed? Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Start xpdf with a pdf in fullscreen: "xpdf -fullscreen some.pdf" 2. xpdf resizes so it fills the entire screen 3. xfwm4 resizes it to have the borders and window stay on screen. Actual Results: See above Expected Results: Expected xpdf to fill up the entire screen with the PDF.
Well i think this might be a xfwm4 problem... did you tried with older versions of xfwm4 ? I Don't have any idea why this happens. I Have to close this bug since i point this as a xfwm4 bug.
http://bugzilla.xfce.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1195 Don't know why I forgot to attach this link, but here it is. I really take it as xpdf is at fault here. It sounds as if Olivier has seen this before, so he probably has an idea about the cause.
