Bug Description

See attached autopilot test for a problem test-case.

When calling the geometry property of a BamfWindow object (for instance, as returned by self.start_app_window()), the bamf emulator bails out with the following error:

  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/autopilot/emulators/bamf.py", line 336, in geometry
    origin = GdkX11.X11Window.foreign_new_for_display(get_display(), self._xid).get_origin()
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/gi/types.py", line 76, in constructor
    return info.invoke(cls, *args, **kwargs)
TypeError: argument display: Expected Gdk.Display, but got Xlib.display.instance

It seems as if the get_display() function is wrongly used in the geometry property.

Setting to "New" and targetting to 1.3. We need to determine if this property is still supported in the 1.3 tree, and if it is, whether this bug is still valid for the Bamf emulator.

If one or more of these is false then the bug should be closed.
