In the "Moving a top-level window" section, the Tip (Since 3.21) says, "It's still possible to ask the window manager to start moving a window with the mouse by calling the Window.StartMove() method."

Did you mean, "It's now possible ..."?

Yes. But I wanted to say that at least it is possible with Wayland to ask the window manager to start moving a window. They implemented that because they wanted the windows to be decorated by the client, and managed on its own decision.

Okay. I have edited the tip. I hope it conveys what you wanted to say.


Only the client application can decide exactly when its window should be moved, but it cannot know where it is. Go figure the logic...

That's Wayland Wisdom!
