Description Gregory Lenoir 2009-01-23 05:18:13 UTC
It seems that compiz-fusion 0.7.8 does not handle maximized windows for KDE4 applications (KDE 4.1.4).
I upgraded to KDE 4.1.4 from 4.1.3. On 4.1.3 everything worked perfectely. On KDE 4.1.4 I have a problem with the window decoration on KDE4 application. If I open a window that were closed when maximized, then the decorator is non existent. I tried different window decorations (compiz-decorator-kde4, emerald) with the same result.

The problem affects only KDE4 applications. Gtk applications continue to work properly.

It is possible to arrange the problem by turning off "legacy fullscreen support" in the workarounds plugin. My guess is that the KDE apps start up with a window size equaling the screen size, which is interpreted as those apps wishing to become fullscreen by the legacy fullscreen workaround.

Exactly that is the case. I therefore have disabled the legacy fullscreen workaround by default, I'm not sure whether we can do any better.
