[comp.windows.x] How tell a window moved?

brian@natinst.com (Brian H. Powell) (12/11/90)

     Somehow I feel I'm just not understanding something.

     Our application would like to know when its window is moved.  I thought
the ConfigureNotify event would tell us this.  We do get the ConfigureNotify
event (for our Xt AppShell), but the x and y fields are bogus.  Indeed,
ICCCM says this may happen.  (I used both twm and olwm, and both behaved
differently, but there didn't seem to be a reliable way to get the new
window position from the event.)
     So what's the real solution?  Is there some alternate way of getting
the window's position when we get the ConfigureNotify?
     Please respond by mail.  I'll post a summary if appropriate.
