nanogui: Thread: nanowm

Hi,

I tried the nano-X server with nanowm. I have a problem (it's a newbie 
question):

I created a window:

  w_akt = GrNewWindow(GR_ROOT_WINDOW_ID,1,1,320,240,4,WHITE,BLUE);

I suposend, it will appear at the upper left corner, but if nanowm starts, it 
moves the window right and down (I can see that movement as a short flicker).

Without nanowm, I get what I wanted.

Any ideas? Would help me, because we have small LCD...


Thank you,
Olaf

Hi,

Bye
Olaf

The problem is that nanowm thinks that it knows better than you where to put 
the window.

Fortunately, you can avoid this by setting the GR_WM_PROPS_NOAUTOMOVE flag 
and calling GrSetWMProperties(), and then your window will go wherever you 
tell it to be.

: Fortunately, you can avoid this by setting the GR_WM_PROPS_NOAUTOMOVE flag 
: and calling GrSetWMProperties(), and then your window will go wherever you 
: tell it to be.

To make it work, you've got to use GrNewWindowEx or call the
GrSetWMProperties before mapping the window.

Dear Sir,

we are using only nanowm, how it will interact with simple application.

Using a widget manager is something that interacts only with levels
above the nano-X system.  The nanowm window manager just adds 
code that draws non-client area borders around top-level windows
and handles the mouse presses in those areas.

Greg

Hi,
    I have just written a screen driver for the uOLED-160 device, working well.

Is it possible to make the mouse cursor smaller (say 8x8) ? I looked for where the cursor bitmap is and could not find it.  i changed max size from 32 to 16 but it just garbled the cursor.

Cheers,
   Rowan

Cool, if you'd like to contribute it for others, please send me a patch
or the file.

The initial cursor bits are in nanox/srvmain.c::GsInitialize().  Change
them and the call to GrNewCursor and you'll be in business.

Greg

Sweet,  i've figured it out thanks heaps.

I will get it working 100% then send you the files because i don't really 
know how to make a patch,
and i have added a couple of files.

i allways get this error on compiling Nano WM...

wlist.c:16: error: static declaration of 'windows' follows non-static 
declaration
nanowm.h:173: error: previous declaration of 'windows' was here

i have not been able to build even with fresh source :(

any clues?

cheers,
  hip
