No window decorator in Dolphin and Gwenview!

Post by condowax »

After running a fullscreen app in wine, dolphin and gwenview don't seem to have window decoration anymore, it seems to be stuck like in fullcreen. I'm currently using compiz but changing to kwin made no difference, still no window decoration in dolphin or gwenview. Every other window is fine and has the window decoration. I must also add that dolphin and gwenview flicker when they are focused. Is there any fullscreen mode for dolphin and gwenview that I'm not aware of or a way to recover window decoration on those windows?

dolphin does at least.
try alt-F3 to get the menu and untick fullscreen.

I tried Alt+F3 but nothing happened. Also tried alt+f5 which is the compiz binding for unmaximizing. It seems like dolphin and gwenview are refusing to use the decorator. It has already happened me in both my last install and this one. Is there any way to force a window to use emerald or kwin?

EDIT: I tried different settings in the workaround plugin in compiz and unchecking the Legacy Fullscreen Support option fixed the problem. It seems that with this option wine made all the windows I had open fullscreen.
