In my experience (IntelliJ IDEA, soapUI) the problems while running swing apps maximized where: 1. If I single-click a menu in the menu bar, the menu will flash briefly and disappears (instead of staying opened). 2. If I click and hold on a menu in the menu bar, the menu stays opened, but the selection is vertically displaced (I have to move the mouse to the third menu item to select the first one, for example). 3. If I right-click to access a context-menu, the selection is displaced as described in the previous case). And a very minor annoyance: Gnome3 relies on the x-windows WM_CLASS property to track applications instead of windows (see http://live.gnome.org/GnomeShell/ApplicationBased). Java swing apps, as far I can tell, don't set this property as gnome3 expects (which means the gnome3 keeps opening new instances of the app every time I click the shortcut). I'll submit the bug to openjdk and see how it goes. -- Ricardo Veguilla González veguilla@xxxxxxxxx -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
