The sax2-tools were never meant to be used in another environment than sax2. There were discussions to have some of the tools as part of the Xorg project but people there are not interested in the tools and maybe there are tools which provides that information already Stefan are you aware of an X11 tool which already provides the information requested above ? Honestly said I'm not willing and don't have time to enhance xquery for the needs requested here because it seems not to have an urgently needed impact on sax2 -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Neither xrandr, nor wmctrl -d nor any other window manager x-querying script was capable of providing the required information, so that I wanna reassign this feature request to X11-Applications. It may be worth a question whether not to implement this for any window manager executable although I believe xquery to be the best place for the feature in desire. Closely related is the question whether the Xorg-libraries do at all provide an appropriate functionality for this. Xrandr may be worth its own feature request since its incapability to differ between xinerama subscreens can be very annoying. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Nonetheless I have kept thinking of it as a good idea. Perhaps the request would have better been saved in the context of xrandr/krandr-xorglibs, because it will commonnly annoy Xinerama users to see the resolutions of different screens merely summed up alltogether. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
