581863 - gtk/nsWindow::GetScreenBounds returns client window size instead of outer (frame) size

Status: REOPENED

(Core :: Widget: Gtk, defect, P3)

Description

[Karl Tomlinson (:karlt)]

nsIWidget::GetScreenBounds should return the "widget's outside dimensions in global coordinates. This includes any title bar on the window."

Correcting this will make test_screenPersistence.xul at least correctly notice that windows created with outer dimensions have the wrong size.

test_screenPersistance.xul will also fail because it opens a window with (inner, I assume) width/height = 300 and expects outerWidth/outerHeight to be 300.

gdk_window_get_frame_extents is the function to use here.

Closing GTK2 related bugs since we removed GTK2 support at the beginning of 2018 in bug 1278282. Probably best to open a new bug in the unlikely event that any of these are still relevant.
