Hello,
This fixes:
http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15346
Theory:
As documented here:
http://tronche.com/gui/x/xlib/window/attributes/override-redirect.html
We cannot use the X API to move the window, as the WM might limit or
interfere with the movement in many ways. An example is that Wine cannot
move a window (with SetWindowPos) partially out of the desktop left-ward
in Metacity or Compiz.
As documented in the link above, overriding the WM with
override_redirect temporarily fixes the problem.
Thanks,
/pedro
