Yeah -- try it out on fvwm2, do you see the same thing? I think it's probably easier to warp the pointer to the middle of the window in such cases. At the moment, it seems to want to put the pointer in the old location of where the window was -- this looks like a bug to me. |

I am also able to reproduce this in fvwm2. After a few more tests it doesn't appear to move the pointer to where the window was. Instead it appears to move the pointer by the exact same dx and dy the window moves. So if the window moves 100p left and 10p up, it moves the pointer in the same way from the current pointer's position. This would also explain why the pointer doesn't move if the window doesn't move. |

When a user issues a Move command, such as:
Move -10p -10p Warp
The mouse pointer would move to the window's same resting place
coordinate, rather than to the window itself.
This appears to have been broken in fvwm2 for some time.
Rather than reimplement the logic found in WarpToWindow, let "Warp"
imply warping the pointer to the centre of the window.
Eventually, "Warp" as an option will go away entirely, so this is only
meant as a temporary solution as it's technically something which we
support.
Should the user want anything more granular or a different pointer
location than what "Warp" now implies with this comment, then the
"WarpToWindow" command can be used instead.

The Warp option in the Move command is not correctly warping the pointer to the top left corner of the window it moves.
The pointer is moved, but not to the correct location. I did not see any pattern in how the pointer was moved.
Also if the window doesn't move, the pointer isn't moved even if it is not on the window (if you say run the same Move command twice in a row, the pointer isn't moved the second time).
My test examples were things like
