FALSE for those windows. Are there any other types of windows that shouldn't be managed?
Yes, Alexandre mentions popup menus and tooltips. Perhaps a chart could be made, so that it is possible to work out what conditions should be used to decide whether to make a window managed...
Yep... Managed tooltips look silly. In any case, unmanaged windows behave badly, and I don't see any reason to use unmanaged windows when Wine is running in managed mode.
Does anybody know how X toolkits display tooltips, popup menus, etc.?
I looked at the GTK+ sources before creating that patch... for popup windows like menus and tooltips and stuff, GTK+ sets the override-redirect window attribute, which causes the window to become unmanaged. Effectively the same as Wine does.
I would think that when running managed Wine, all window should be managed, and the distinction should be between decorationless windows and everything else, not managed windows and everything else.
If nobody else wants to dig into this, I'll probably take a shot at it.
Go ahead.
