Let Window manager manage the tool windows
« on: November 01, 2009, 01:54:40 am »
Under Linux, when I undock a tool window (e.g. Project Browser) and make it be its own window, rather than letting the normal window manager handle the window, EA insists upon handling the window itself. This doesn't play nice with the rest of the desktop.

It would be nice if there were a way to tell EA "any child windows are to be normal windows, with all the normal window management properties" - so that under Windows they would be normal windows (e.g. they would show up in the Task bar) and under Wine they would be handled as normal windows decorated by the window manager.
