The Java drag and drop issue is disabled by default because it does seem to cause some problems with specific applications when connecting with an OSX client. Use the environment variable on the server to enable it. Release notes: * fix window iconification / maximization loops on win32 * fix handling of fullscreen requests * fix group leader code (window and memory leak) * fix drag and drop with Java applications with XPRA_REPARENT_ROOT=1 * fix window spinners * fix xpra control sound-output subcommand The source: https://xpra.org/src/ Binaries/repositories: https://winswitch.org/downloads/ Direct binary downloads: https://xpra.org/dists/ Beta: https://xpra.org/beta/ Cheers Antoine From bastian at eicher.net Mon Mar 9 11:03:34 2015 From: bastian at eicher.net (Bastian Eicher) Date: Mon, 9 Mar 2015 12:03:34 +0100 Subject: [winswitch] Window Switch collaboration with Zero Install Message-ID: <001901d05a58$b03faf90$10bf0eb0$@eicher.net> Hello all, I am a developer on the Zero Install project (http://0install.net/), a cross-platform open-source package manager. Its main feature is the ability to "run" applications without having an explicit install step (automatically downloading and caching any required binaries and dependencies for you). I have recently been thinking about adding functionality to Zero Install to allow it to launch an application on a remote machine. Possible use-case: User on a Windows workstation wants to use a Linux-only application and tries to launch it via Zero Install. Zero Install sees that there is no implementation available for the local platform but that there is a suitable remote machine or VM and launches the application there. Since Window Switch already implements all the cool cross-platform app remoting goodness I thought it would be a perfect fit. Would you guys perhaps be interested in collaborating on some form of integration between Window Switch and Zero Install?

Currently I'm using xtoolwait to wait until my window is available and then wmctrl to shade it. This workaround is working but we see breefly the window appearing and disappearing. Any ideas to make it possible with Xpra ? Thanks
