Bug Description

Binary package hint: compiz

When using spatial nautilus with compiz enabled, I have had nautilus windows drift about 10px lower than their last saved location each time I open them, and when I close and reopen the window it drifts down another 10px, and so on. This is a huge usuability bug for those that actually use spatial nautilus, since part of the spatial file managment system is knowing that folders will always open in the same spot you closed them in.

I can confirm this bug. I use spatial and it's an annoyance at best, and clearly a bug since this is exactly what spatial windows are NOT supposed to do.

Changed in compiz:
status: New → Confirmed

Yes I can also confirm this also, window moves down by about 10px or so each time.. not good

Still no importance assigned? I realize Ubuntu uses the browser mode by default for some innane reason, but please, this needs fixed before us spatial users go ballistic.
