Bug Description

Sometimes when I click minimize/maximize/close on my windows, there's no rollover color change and instead of doing the action, the window just gets sent back, often causing me to accidentally close another application that was behind it.

It's pretty arbitrary, actually. It frequently happens after I maximize a
window, but again it happens to some windows and not others. I frequently
trigger it when opening up lots of windows in GIMP while I'm editing my
photos. The next time it's happening, is there something I can do to capture
the state of my machine?

There is no easy way to do that, no, what would be useful is steps to trigger the bug

I found this closed bug on Google while trying to troubleshoot the same issue. I can confirm that it happens randomly.

Switching to a virtual console and back with CTRL+ALT+F2 and CTRL+ALT+F7 causes metacity to resume normal behavior.
