           Summary: Kwin: creating chrome less windows of size equal to
                    screen resolution cover the taskbar.
           Product: kde
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Ubuntu Packages
        OS/Version: unspecified
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: unassigned-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: dsingh at adobe.com


Version:            (using KDE 4.3.1)
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages

Creating a chrome less window of size equal to your screen resolution creates a
window of that size and covers the system task bar.
The expectation is that the WM should restrict the size of the window to the
screen's visible area.

// make the window chrome less 
gtk_window_set_decorations(GTK_WINDOW(window), FALSE);
gtk_window_show_all(window);

// set the size equal to screen resolution (1400 x 1050 in my case)
gtk_window_move(GTK_WINDOW(window), 0,0);
gtk_window_resize(GTK_WINDOW(window), 1400, 1050);

Result - The window covers the whole desktop including the task bar.
Expected - The window should not cover the task bar, the WM should restrict the
window size to visible area
