amazing moving/growing windows!!

Dear all,

a happy user of our beloved Flux, I installed Matlab and Ansys the other
day. And the magic started right after..

Matlab opens a window if you issue a plot command. This one gets
positioned nicely. You can also plot into new windows, obviously, but
Flux deals strangely with that: the first window gets moved slightly
upwards, and when you click the second, it might move up not so
slightly; rather, I had a few escaping the screen!

Then, Ansys. This one not only moves windows, but starts enlarging them
to a point your memory pops. Anyway, no one wants to pan 2km with the
mouse.. Just imagine, you bring up the Save/Quit dialog and the window
starts growing unboundedly (and quite fast) and you have no chance of
clicking any button!

With Gnome there's no such magic behaviour. I won't go as far as saying
Flux is to blame, because my experience with Ansys tells me they had
mechanical engineers developing the interface, but something must
account for this incoherent behaviour in the two WMs.

Can anyone drop a line with ideas? Thanks in advance,

Renato
