I’ve been building a window manger for macOS that involves hiding windows offscreen, but I’ve found AccessibilityKit clamps position writes at the screen edge, so I’ve had to settle for allowing a 1px-wide sliver (plus shadow) in the corner. Is that what you’re doing too, or did you find an alternative?

This reminds me of when wobbly windows were the big thing in linux. It was good plain fun back then, it seems fun again with this.

Drawing apps do regularly allow for canvas rotation, so I’m sure this’ll turn out to be useful for some class of application that I’m not considering.
