Bug Description

buntu 13.10 64bit version.

Nedit is a text editor based on Motif and I have used it for many year on various systems (Redhat *, OpenSuSe *, Ubuntu 9.10 ~13.04) and never have any major problem.

However, after I ugraded my OS from Ubuntu 13.04 to 13.10, I noticed some wierd things related with the dialog window. For example, if I press "ctrl+F" (shortcut for Finding string in file.), the dialog appears normal. However, as I use the finding function more and more, the dialog window appears in a smaller and smaller size.

So for me it seems something wrong with the compiz in Ubuntu 13.10, becuase I don't have the same problem in Ubuntu 13.04.

You can find Nedit in Ubuntu's Software Center.

If you need any information, please let me know.

Thank you.

Thank you for the fix:):):)

Now my questions are:

1) Has this fix been put into any update package of Ubuntu 13.10?
2) If it has not, how can I apply this fix to my system?

This bug was fixed in the package compiz - 1:0.9.11+14.04.20140214-0ubuntu1

---------------
compiz (1:0.9.11+14.04.20140214-0ubuntu1) trusty; urgency=low

  [ Timo Jyrinki ]
  * Bump version to 0.9.11

  [ Marco Trevisan (Treviño) ]
  * debian/00_remove_decor_in_unity_session.py: add migration script
    to avoid to load the decor plugin on compiz startup when using unity.
  * debian/compiz-gnome.gconf-defaults: disable decor plugin on unity session

  [ Sebastien Bacher ]
  * debian/compiz-gnome.links: lists keybinding in unity-control-center
  * typo fix in the previous commit. (LP: #1271710)

  [ Iven Hsu ]
  * Opacify: Only dim the windows above the active window.(LP:
    #1189374). (LP: #1189374)
  * KWD: Fix compile errors with KDE 4.11. The KWin developers made
    kdecorationbridge.h private. See:
    http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/compiz/2013-March/003479.html
    (LP: #1193792). (LP: #1193792)

  [ Nikolay Martynov ]
  * When static switcher is enabled and has an option to show
    application icon turned on the icons are expected to be ~1/3 of a
    thumbnail (48px). Instead they are displayed in 512px size and
    completely cover everything. This change addresses this issue. See
    LP #1173914. (LP: #1173914, #1186426)

  [ BryanFRitt ]
  * Fixed the non-working Annotate 'Clear' Button. Moved this option's
    CCSM position upwards to keep the button shortcuts together. (LP:
    #1202907). (LP: #1202907)

  [ CI bot ]
  * Flush trunk to Ubuntu

  [ William Hua ]
  * Replace <Primary> with <Control> in CCSM. Fixes
    https://bugs.launchpad.net/compiz/+bug/1069121. (LP: #1069121)
  * Tweak support of key bindings of the form
    '<Modifier>Modifier_KeySym'. We tweak a bit the behaviour of key
    bindings such as '<Control>Shift_L' and '<Alt>Alt_R'. 1. We ignore
    the order of key pressing and releasing, so tapping
    '<Shift>Control_L' is the same as '<Control>Shift_L'. 2. We properly
    handle the double modifiers case, for example '<Control>Control_R'.
    3. We also parse key bindings with '<Primary>' being equivalent to
    '<Control>'.
  * Fix GSettings tests with extra slash.
  * Add an interface for plugins to provide non-option key actions that
    can be triggered.

  [ Eleni Maria Stea ]
  * It fixes the bug #1245886. In DecorScreen::handleEvent compiz
    shouldn't try to handle any events if there's no active window yet.
    (LP: #1245886)
  * Compiz static analysis shows that some compiz classes have virtual
    methods but not virtual destructors. Added the virtual destructors
    to get rid of warnings and potential memory leaks.
  * fixed cmake syntax errors.
  * CMake considered compiz a C++ project and couldn't find some
    dependencies like pthreads. Defined compiz as a C, CXX project to
    fix the issue.

  [ Povilas Kanapickas ]
  * Opacify: Properly initialize window drawing for new windows in
    Opacify plugin. (LP: #787814, part 2). (LP: #787814)
  * Opacify: Fix damage generation in the Opacify plugin. When setting
    opacity to some value, non-opacified windows need to be damaged
    regardless of opacity, whereas opacified windows need to be damaged
    only if opacity changes. Remove u...
