Windows "pop back" to maximize when clicked, no resizing (compiz?)

Hi!
I haven't seen this problem for a while and now it's back:
- Sometimes a window gets stuck fullscreen or maximized
- I can resize it with grid plugin but alt+mouse2 does not seem to work
- As soon as it gains focus, it pops back to take up the whole of the screen
- restarting the application does not change anything. Restarting compiz neighter
- this seems to happen randomly, with different applications - mostly ones I hardly use.
- behaviour stays buggy like that until I restart X or sometimes after closing the applications a few times, resizing, maximizing, clicking different stuff.
Using xfce4-panel, compiz, emerald, gtk. No window rules for automatic positioning / resizing.
Any ideas on what to look for? Thanks!

    Actually, I suspect you can't. You get various behaviors based on a combination of settings in Preferences > Interface; namely Open Documents as Tabs and Enable Floating Document Window Docking; but it doesn't seem to make much sense as far as I can tell. Throw in the additional "application frame" wildcard on a Mac, and even just exploring the effects of the settings and drawing conclusions about them gets tricky. It sounds like you've got your windows floating, whereas I suspect many if not most users have opted for the more structured and seemingly more logical tabbed/docked method, in which case they haven't encountered your issue and don't really understand it. One might ask; if your new/current document is "in front" then what difference does it make if others behind it are minimized, maximized, or something in between?

    Is it me or?, Window Buttons Do Not Work When Clicked

    What app are you using?
    Here's something strange I've noticed in Mail a couple times.
    For some reason Mail opens several viewer windows all stacked on top of each other.
    So while click the close button does close the window, there's an identical on behind it.
    So it almost seems like clicking the close button has done nothing but it really has.
    Could this be what your seeing?

  • Skype for Business manager window popping up randomly after typing/clicking/working

    Hello there,
    I work for a national charity and we have recently upgraded our computers and employees to Skype for Business. My co-worker is having an issue where no matter what she's working on, after every few clicks or letters typed, the Skype for Business window pops up. I've looked in the Settings under each tab but I haven't found a solution. It's preventing us getting good work done for those afflicted with the disease we're fighting against, so I was hoping a good samaritan could help me on this community board in fixing the issue.
    I hope that you can help,
    Jena

    does anyone know if there is a way to actually speak to SKYPE? i would like to discuss different business options (I have spent 20 mins searching the website and internet for a contact us and resorted to this, much like google! ridiculous that you cannot speak to a human being !!!)

  • Main window animation to fly in when clicked on different menu buttons

    For a flash website I'm creating, I want my main window box with all the information containing it to fly in when a menu button is clicked.
    I can't figure out the actionscript to do that.
    It's the same thing as this website's main window:
    http://www.flash-templates-today.com/free-flash-templates/27/

    thanks for the tips!
    did you know of any links or templates that would have the actionscript for that already done that i could base mine off of?
    I'm not sure how I would make the movieclip tween when I clicked on a menu button and have the text in it change as well.

  • Application windows remembering original anchor points when moving or resizing

    Recently it seems that most of my windows, especially iTunes, Safari, and Finder, seem to retain the anchor points from when they were opened and revert to their original position if a window is resized. I've noticed the following odd behaviors that seem to be related to this problem:
    After moving an iTunes or Safari window, right-clicking will open the context menu in a location that corresponds to where the window was originally placed.
    After moving a window, a drag-n-drop target remains relative to where the window was. For example, in iTunes, if I open the application and move the window, it becomes impossible to drag a song into a playlist (unless I drag the song to the location where that playlist was when the window originally opened). The same sort of thing happens with Finder windows. In the image below, a screen grab of a Safari window, I right-clicked on the signal strength display pictured on the phone to the left; notice the context menu way off to the right of the Safari window.
    Resizing a Safari window makes the window first snap back to the original location, then allows the resize to occur.
    Opening/closing a tab in Safari, when the action causes the tab bar to appear or disappear, causes the Safari window to snap back to the original anchored position.
    I've noticed this behavior over the past week or so. It was about a week ago that I installed the 10.9.5 update to the OS, but I'm not sure if the problem pre-dated the update or not.
    This is driving me insane. Does anyone have any suggestions or, hopefully, a fix?
    Thanks.

  • Muse Anchors 'offset' when clicked

    Hello,
    I have a problem with some of my anchors. When I set an anchor at the top of my page to have a bottom button click to "back to top" when clicked the page goes up diagonally instead of vertically.
    I tried re-creating the page all together and it worked once, but it's not working anymore when it started doing it on other pages. I also tried creating new, repositioning anchor to top of page, changing name of anchors and nothing.
    you can see what I'm talking about on this particualr page:
    http://www.tocmexico.com.mx/familia-y-toc.html
    any help would be highly appreciated!
    on a side note, a little bug:
    when using the arrows to, let's say increase the font size, If you leave it pressed to go faster and then unclick, it still goes up on and on and on till it decides to stop on font size 10000 (exagerating) or it crashes.
    Thanks!

    I made a in app purchase on a game and it never took, when I went back and tried it again a window popped up that said I have already purchased this item but has not been downloaded yet? How do I download it when there is not a option to download?

    Hi Dave_warr,
    I would suggest restarting the iPad and see if the download resumes.
    iTunes: How to resume interrupted iTunes Store downloads
    Resuming downloads from an iOS device
    From the Home screen, tap the iTunes icon.
    For iPhone/iPod touch, tap More > Downloads. For iPad, tap Downloads.
    Enter your account name and password.
    Click the "OK" button.
    Click the Resume or Resume All button to start the download.
    If you don't see the application to download it, then follow these troubleshooting steps:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    If the app does not appear in your list of purchases, then contact the iTunes Store for help:

    I hope this information helps ....

  • Yesterday, since I downloaded the lastest version 3.6.6, every time firefox opens and when I click on something, I get multiple error windows that say "ERROR: Security Manager Vetoed Action. I can't hardly use if anymore because of all the window pop-ups

    Yesterday, since I downloaded the latest version 3.6.6, every time firefox opens and when I click on something, I get multiple error windows that say "ERROR: Security Manager Vetoed Action". I can't hardly use if anymore because of all the window pop-ups. What can I do? Can I go back to an older version?

  • When I click on the home icon - all tabs I've previoulsy used and have closed pop back up. Mozilla Firefox 4.0 Beta 7

    When I click on the home icon all the previous tabs I have used and have closed pop back up. I have Windows 7, 64 bit and I am using Mozilla Firefox 4.0 Beta 7.
    A few days a go I had installed iMesh, but FF took forever to load. I uninstalled iMesh and all my stored passwords were gone. I then did a system recovery. And everything was back to normal.
    Yesterday when I downloaded a video using youtube downloader I got a there's a newer version. I installed the newer version. After it was installed the previously closed tabs started popping up.

    Check your list of home pages, Firefox can store multiple home pages. For details of how to do that see the [[How to set the home page]] article.
