Re: [xmonad] dzen bar not visible with the Minimize module

Each layout (and layout modifier) can specify its own string. Maybe the easiest way to find out what the right string to add is to add a catch-all case; this will also help you in the future when you forget about this problem. =) It would look something like (\x -> case {- can't remember what went here -} of "Tabbed" -> ... ... -> ... s -> "Unexpected layout <" ++ s ++ ">" ) Good luck! ~d Quoting Francesco Mazzoli :

Thanks for the answer!

I don't think I really understand how this work. Does minimize its own layout, or is it a modification of the others?

I tried both way adding a "Minimize" and "minimize" case, and modifying the existing layouts adding minimize to them, but it didn't work.

What am I doing wrong?

Your pretty-printer is almost certainly throwing an exception in the case statement.  Be sure to add a case for your minimized layout! ~d

Hi, I have got a problem with the Minimize module and I can't find a solution.

When I try to use it using the example code provided in the module page, one of my two dzen bars disappear. This is my desktop without the Minimize module: http://i50.tinypic.com/2d6w9d3.png

and that's what happen when I activate it: http://i46.tinypic.com/34e9vth.png

Here is my configuration file: http://hpaste.org/fastcgi/hpaste.fcgi/view?id=17112#a17112

The only line of code that I change is this: layoutHook = smartBorders $ avoidStruts (Full ||| tiled  ||| Mirror tiled) to that: layoutHook = smartBorders $ avoidStruts $ minimize (Full ||| tiled ||| Mirror tiled)

As you can see I have already hasked in the archlinux forum and in the xmonad irc channel, but no one seems to have a solution.

I absolutely adore xmonad and this module would make it even better! _______________________________________________ xmonad mailing list xmonad@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/xmonad
