It should be able to handle the first two of your items, though you'll probably need to experiement with --type to get the decoration removed. Positioning is usually something windows are capable of themselves, e.g. most provide a -geometry or --geometry option to specify size and location. I think the format for this option is widthxheight+horizontal offset+vertical offset, e.g. 640x480+0+0 However I think window managers can, depending on their placement strategy, override this. If you are using KWin as your window manager (KDE default), then you could try to modify the window's properties through the decoration's configuration GUI, i.e. right click on the decoration and choose "configure window behavior" Cheers, Kevin -- Kevin Krammer, KDE developer, xdg-utils developer KDE user support, developer mentoring
