wobbly windows is not the cause for this problem.

checked with a few applications and only the terminal window was opening under the top panel.

Workaround to stop the windows from opening offscreen:

Compiz Settings manager > Put > Misc. options > select "Window Center" "Avoid Offscreen" and put padding > "pad top" to the size of the panel (mine is set to 25pixels, standard is 45 i believe)

Compiz settings manager > Place windows > Workarounds selected and "Placement mode" set to "smart"

This works for me, i dont know if this will fix the problem for everybody because i am fairly new to linux myself.
