Creates windows with the decoration not visible if move plugin enabled with Y constraint off

[Muelli]

Binary package hint: compiz

If the move plugin is enabled and the Y constraint option is set to off to allow it to move windows beyond the upper limit of the screen, compiz creates new windows (e.g. new Firefox windows or new Gajim chats) at the upper border, hiding the window decoration under the gnome-panel.

I expected the window decoration to be visible as it's the case when the Move plugin is not enabled, the Y constraint option is set or when metacity is run.

Hello.

I can see from your bug report that you are using compiz version 1:0.7.7+git20080807-0ubuntu10 with Ubuntu 8.10 . However the latest version of compiz for Ubuntu Intrepid Ibex is 1:0.7.8-0ubuntu4.1 . Have you already tried to update compiz? Does you bug report happens with the new version?
I've tried to reproduce this issue with Ubuntu 8.10 and compiz 1:0.7.8-0ubuntu4.1 but I was unable.

Thanks for your support!
