Description
|
A DESCRIPTION OF THE REQUEST :
A Java "top" Window always set the "program specified location" of the
WM_NORMAL_HINTS. The value specified by setLocation is used and if you
do not specify a location, the position is set to (0,0).
So, it is not possible to let the window manager places a Java window by
itself (some window managers can enforce this policy, but this is not
the point).
It will be customer to be able to do this with something like:
noLocation( boolean b)
JUSTIFICATION :
The window manger is the application which has the better view on the
set of all the windows on the desktop. It can do a real customer job to
place the windows for better usability (e.g., by reducing windows
overlapping).

Sounds like the same issue as 4102292.

With the fix for 4102292 a new method was introduced to Window class: setLocationByPlatform(boolean). This method is right what this change request is about.
