systray notification doesn't handle shadows at all

Bug #20756 reported by Guillermo Gutiérrez on 2005-09-01

Affects		Status	Importance	Assigned to	Milestone
	notification-daemon (Ubuntu)	Invalid	Low	Michael Vogt

Bug Description

A png is worth more than thousand words.

Mind the missed shadow at border bottom; and, in the top, shadow'd follow the arrow.
All others windows works well, with "xcompmgr -c" in gnome autostartup apps list
(order: 50)

Thanks for your bugreport.

This looks like the composition manager (or whatever is responsible for drawing
the shadows) does not draw shadows for gtk-windows that are not
GTK_WINDOW_TOPLEVEL. notification-daemon uses GTK_WINDOW_POPUP to avoid window
decoration.

Cheers,
Michael

Is this still a problem with compiz? Last I played with it, popup bubbles looked correct.

Thanks,
Michael
