Bug 34507 – gnomeicu doesn't remember window size if Gnome session is exited while gnomeicu window is hidden

• Status: RESOLVED UPSTREAM
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description stefan.ihringer 2003-11-27 03:08:15 UTC]

By double clicking GnomeICU's notification area icon one can hide the
application's window. However, if I log out of Gnome, GnomeICU's window is reset
to its default size the next time I log in. This error doesn't occur when the
window is visile before logout. Also, it looks like the window's position on the
desktop is remembered properly whether GnomeICU is hidden or not.

Program versions:
gnomeicu-0.99-r1
metacity-2.6.2
gnome-session-2.4.0


Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. start gnomeicu
2. resize window
3. double-click notification area icon to hide window
4. log out of Gnome

Actual Results:  
GnomeICU hasn't remembered its window size.

Expected Results:  
Window should have been placed and sized as set up by user before exiting Gnome.

i think this is more of an upstream problem with metacity.

actually its an upstream problem from gnomeicu.. Please file a bug on bugzilla.gnome.org against gnomeicu so I think to take care of it..
