Description

This is a thread for people to discuss Linux/Mac (and notably custom window managers under Linux) specific issues with the Viewport branch, mentioned in #1542. I am not a Linux user so I hope users will come to a solution to make the various bindings compatible with window managers.

January 2019: Viewport and Docking branches have been merged to simplify maintainance. Use the 'docking' branch to test multi-viewports.
