Setting window.position.x (and y) no longer works.

System

OS: Linux
Version: 0.12.3
Linux: X11 with Awesome Window Manger on Fedora 38.

Logs

1. Run terminal -o 'window.position.x: 666'
2. Window appears where ever the window manager puts it, not at x=666.

Note that

1. changing the option in the configuration file (`~/.config/alacritty/alacritty.yml) does nothing either.
2. Using terminal -o 'window.dimensions.columns: 120' works and gets 120 columns.

Are you sure you're on X11 and did it work in 0.12.2?

[kchibisov]

nothing changed since 0.12.2 to 0.12.3. it's likely update from 0.10 or 0.11.

I am pretty sure it's X11:

√ ; loginctl show-session $(awk '/tty/ {print $1}' <(loginctl)) -p Type | awk -F= '{print $2}'
x11

It is possible that it was an older change. I just noticed. I modified by awesome config and now just noticed the issues. Regardless, I still think it is an issue. There was thins old issue, but it was marked as fix in 0.12.2.

Anything else I can help with debugging?

Can you try a different X11 WM? Like i3?
