Hi,
Which window manager are you using ? Often it is the window manager that reposition the window on the top right if the coordinates of the window are beyond the screen. Not Wine.

Does anyone know who constrains a window to be on the screen?
Our application, in order to minimise flicker, does the hard work with a container application deliberately positioned well off-screen (enormous negative coordinates I think).
This works under Windows.
However under WINE the initial window appears in the top right corner of
my
screen (I think I've seen it appear in other corners too on other computers). It then resizes , keeping the same top left corner (with
parts
of the window off-screen) before correctly repositioning itself into the middle of the screen.
Does anyone know which code is doing the initial positioning in the top right corner? Is this deliberate?
