Hello Cedric

What's your WM? (Compiz, Metacity, KWin, XFWM, etc.)
Is it possible to try to reproduce this bug with Compiz?

For me this bug is due to your WM because the window of Cairo-Dock is resized and moved as the same time and I guess that your WM does these two things one after the other.

Kwin window manager, will give a look with compiz...

Ok, can confirm it's a Kwin issue, will report to them.

thanks !
to be more specific, I think the problem comes from the use of the
gdk_move_resize function, which resizes and moves the window at the same
time.
it just calls XMoveResize, and then the WM get the X message and do its job
(here, it probably does it in 2 times instead of 1).
