Wine and window manager control (solved).

Post by lvlo »

Is there way to temporarily switch off the control wine's windows by window manager for some (in my case only for 1 fullscreen game) applications?

System: Ubuntu 8.04 Hardy and Wine 1.0 RC5.

Thank you for your time.

Run winecfg, Add application on the first tab you want to set this for, select it, go to "Graphics" tab. Uncheck "Allow window manager to control Wine windows".
