For example, under Evolution with XWayland, when opening the "File" menu, the menu appears but outside the application's window. We supposed (but we maybe wrong) that the menu may be a X11 Window, then wrapped as a surface by XWayland, as the bug was related to Weston badly calculating the new surface coordinates. (BTW, it would be great if you had an opinion/insight on this matter) Thanks for all your answers, nice to see some reactivity on this list :-).

There is no way to place a surface to an absolute position from the client side, but there may be ways to solve your problem in a different way. What are you trying to achieve? </blockquote> Loading saved window arrangements from a client's configuration file is the likely reason. At the moment this is a problem for migrating our software to Wayland. I understand the desire to remove this from Wayland but I am somewhat stumped on any other way for Wayland to provide this functionality. It appears it is possible for X clients to do this, so I think the battle is lost and Wayland should add this for non-X clients. I agree the supplied code should not work. Attempting to set a loop in the surface parents should be an error. _______________________________________________ wayland-devel mailing list <a href="mailto:wayland-devel@lists.freedesktop.org" target="_blank">wayland-devel@lists.freedesktop.org</a> <a href="http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/wayland-devel" target="_blank">http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/wayland-devel</a> </blockquote> _______________________________________________ wayland-devel mailing list <a href="mailto:wayland-devel@lists.freedesktop.org" target="_blank">wayland-devel@lists.freedesktop.org</a> <a href="http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/wayland-devel" target="_blank">http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/wayland-devel</a> </blockquote> </blockquote> _______________________________________________ wayland-devel mailing list <a href="mailto:wayland-devel@lists.freedesktop.org" target="_blank">wayland-devel@lists.freedesktop.org</a> <a href="http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/wayland-devel" target="_blank">http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/wayland-devel</a> </div></div></blockquote></div> </div>
