1 steam

4 Description
5 -----------
6 The Steam client, and steam windows (games), tends to trigger a ConfigureNotify request every time
7 the window gets focus. More so, the configure events passed along from Steam may have the wrong x
8 and y coordinates which can make the window, if floating, jump around the screen. Another observed
9 symptom is the steam window continuously sliding towards the bottom right corner of the screen.

11 This patch works around this age-old issue by ignoring the x and y co-ordinates for ConfigureNotify
12 requests relating to Steam windows.
13
14 It should be noted that this is a simple and crude patch, and while it can be made more generic
15 I have intentionally left it hardcoded against steam in particular as few other windows behaves
16 this badly.
