what window type is a kde3 menu popup?

Hi,

I have compiz enabled and I like the effects, but it messes up whenever I open a menu in KDE, like right clicking something or he KMenu. I want to disable it, so I tried an inverted match to unmatch kicker, but it didn't quite work.

Right now, I have it only to mach Normal and Dialog windows. I tried to get the window information with the information utility for X (I forgot what it was), but it said the cursor was busy.

How can I unmatch popup menus from KDE?

thanks,

Take a look at Notifications in System Settings, this is not in Compiz Config Settings Manager (ccsm).

I looked under System Notifications, but the only thing there was how to set sounds to different events and stuff. I'm running KDE3, not 4.

thanks,

Run the xprop command in a terminal and then click on the window you are interested in. You'll get all sorts of information, much of which is used by window managers.

PS. In particular, look at the WM_CLASS and WM_NAME variables
