Good day,
I heavily use notifications from the libnotify library on many of my desktop apps, and I really would like to have a way of these notifications not appearing on top of the harbour. My harbour is normally located on the right edge of the screen, and notifications are always placed on the very lower-right edge of the screen.
Using xprop to get the properties of a sample notification window, I get the following data:
> xprop
WM_NORMAL_HINTS(WM_SIZE_HINTS): program specified location: 0, 0 program specified minimum size: 400 by 95 window gravity: NorthWest WM_CLASS(STRING) = "<unknown>", "<unknown>" WM_ICON_NAME(STRING) = "Notification" WM_NAME(STRING) = "Notification"
So I am guessing that having "NorthWest" window gravity is the hint that places the window on the lower right end (though to me that is SouthEast).
Would it make sense to have the option named "MaximizeOver (Harbour section)" also affect windows with specified gravity hints?
Closing upon user request.
Please close this bug as invalid. My understanding of "Window Gravity" was way off when I opened it.
