Issue 104: Window padding and/or transparent normalBorderColor http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=104 New issue report by thayerw: I apologize if this is not not the appropriate venue for such a request... I think it would be great to have an extension that can set a user-configurable padding between both the screen edges as well as clients, giving the appearance that the tiled clients were floating on top of the desktop. For example, assuming the padding was set to something like 40px, it would look something like this: http://www.cinderwick.ca/files/shots/20071217-dublin.png (attached) Attachments: 20071217-dublin.png 623 KB Issue attributes: Status: New Owner: ---- Labels: Type-Defect Priority-Medium -- You received this message because you are listed in the owner or CC fields of this issue, or because you starred this issue.

Stuck inside a window - this happen to anyone else?
by Dougal Stanton 17 Dec '07

17 Dec '07

This is just a complete shot-in-the-dark bug report, to see if anyone else has experienced similar symptoms. I don't imply that the following problem has anything to do with xmonad, though it would seem the prime suspect. Earlier today I was working in Firefox with a bunch of other windows open on screen, a bunch of other workspaces populated too. FF was working fine, but everything I tried to do *outside* of the browser didn't work. I couldn't mouse over other windows to give them focus. I couldn't switch to other workspaces. I couldn't move the focussed window around with mod-shift-j/k or choose a new master. I couldn't mod-q to restart, though I managed to switch to another virtual terminal and back (ctrl-alt-Fn) so the keyboard seems to have been responsive. If I'd been thinking at the time I would have tried to open another window from within Firefox to see what it would do. In the end I killed xmonad from the other VT and it all worked out fine. Has this ever happened to you? And secondarily, is there a way to mod-q Xmonad through a kill sig? Does it recognise SIGHUP? Cheers, D. -- Dougal Stanton dougal(a)dougalstanton.net // http://www.dougalstanton.net

Defining Layouts
by Thomas Adam 16 Dec '07

16 Dec '07

Hello all, Maybe this is already possible through some combination of existing extensions, I'm not sure so I thought I would ask anyway. I'm not using anything fancy at the moment, just the usual layouts defined like this: , layoutHook = configurableNavigation (navigateColor "#00aa00") $ toggleLayouts (noBorders Full) $ (smartBorders (tiled ||| Mirror tiled ||| Full)) Sometimes, when I am working in tiled mode, I might have a layout such as this: +------------+-------------+ | window A | | +------------+Window D| | window B | | +------------+-------------+ | window C |Window E | +------------+-------------+ Where windows A,B and C are in the master pane. Is it possible to make window D in this example fill the entire right hand side (to effectively "cover" window E) and then to toggle it back afterwards? There are times where there might be many more windows in the non-master pane and having one window fill the entire space would be useful. Indeed, the same principle would apply if the above was in the Mirror tiled layout. I know I could use Mirror{Expand,Shrink} to resize windows, but that's not quite what I want, and it certainly wouldn't restore the window's size afterwards. Many thanks, Thomas Adam

Issue 90: Restarting xmonad re-runs dzen/xmobar, which puts it at the top of the window stack http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=90 Comment #1 by shachaf: A workaround, with dzen, is to run it with -e 'onstart=lower' -- this lowers the dzen window, so that other windows can cover it. -- You received this message because you are listed in the owner or CC fields of this issue, or because you starred this issue.
