Oh dear, there must be more people who have X11-Spaces problems!
Yeah, I missed another big one:
2 reports: <rdar://problem/5517854> Spaces: pointer offset is wrong
after dragging X windows between spaces
So, here's a good example of a point I'm going to expand upon in
another thread -- I talked to the Spaces guys, and they graciously
agreed to set up a meeting so we could try to figure these issues
out. The problem is, I don't yet understand the problem well enough
to have anything to ask them.
I'm specifically referring to that last bug, where the pointer
offset is wrong. If someone were looking for a way to help me fix
this without even writing any code, it would be to try to dig
through our code and figure out where it might be calculating this
offset -- I'd then be able to say "this number we're getting from
Quartz is wrong, what is a better way to ask for this number"?
I wouldn't have any time to dig through the server code, but I can
point out that a window's X geometry does not change when it is moved
from within Spaces. If you move an xev window from Spaces, you don't
see any events (no ConfigureNotify events, in particular).
