[Fluxbox-users] drag window over workspaces problem.

[Jesus Sanchez]

Hi there.

Using OpenBSD 4.3 fluxbox 0.9.15.1 port.

I have a weird behaviour with draging windows over workspaces. I have
set 4 workspaces and warping enabled. So theorically I drag a window
with Alt + LeftMouse to the edge of the workspace and fluxbox jumps to
the next workspace, allowing me to place the window there. About the 60%
of the times I try to do this, when the cursor reachs the edge, fluxbox
enters in a kind of "loop" between the four workspaces and jumps
constantly between them (showing the one,two... on the toolbar) and I
lost the control over X for a few instants until I recover the control
and this weird thing stops.

Trying with a clean install not helped.

Nothing attached to the slit.

Tried in many machines, same thing.

CVSed and compiled a few times, so discard the corrupt binary issue.

Not a Xorg issue (CVSed and compiled as well)

Tried with the videocard native driver and the VESA driver, and same
thing.

Tried with many values of EdgeSnapThresshold and same issue.

This is a known thing??
I'm missing something?
bug?

Hi there.
Using OpenBSD 4.3 fluxbox 0.9.15.1 port.

0.9.15 is over 2 years old and not supported anymore.
The loop you call it was a bug.
Get fluxbox 1.1.1 to fix it.
