Then why did you respond with that? You started out saying composited
windows were incompatible with WNE and you still haven't offered a single
fact to support that position.

You're the one who said it and apparently even you don't know why. Okay.

Well, that's what I said, and an application that uses WNE can use
composited windows just fine. You made a wild, unsubstantiated statement in
claiming that WNE and compositing are incompatible, and now you don't even
seem to agree with your own statements. Discussion is fine, but what you're
doing is just a waste of everyone's time.
