Request to use _MOTIF_WM_HINTS since _GTK_HIDE_TITLEBAR_WHEN_MAXIMIZED is removed

[shemgp]

Hello,

In GNOME 3.32 _GTK_HIDE_TITLEBAR_WHEN_MAXIMIZED is gone: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/merge_requests/221

They say that extensions should use _MOTIF_WM_HINTS instead.

Could you update this nice extension to use that instead?

Thank you.

Hi @franglais125. I have fixed this issue in my extension (unite) and this is the final solution:
https://github.com/hardpixel/unite-shell/blob/master/unite%40hardpixel.eu/modules/windowDecoration.js#L86

If we don't want to use unite-shell what is the solution for maximal/no-title-bar/pixel-saver/etc?
