Hi All,
I've been using xmonad for a few months now, and I love it. I
continuously find better and better ways to set up my desktop. One
thing I've been struggling with is fullscreen. I use this mostly for
watching movies, but also potentially for showing a presentation.
I would like to either have key combination which turns the current
workspace to fullscreen or to designate one of my workspaces to be in
fullscreen always (or both).
I currently have the following key bindings defined:
-- toggle the status bar gap
, ((modMask .|. shiftMask, xK_b ), sendMessage ToggleStruts)
-- Toggle borders
, ((controlMask .|. shiftMask, xK_b ), withFocused toggleBorder)
The first makes the status bar disappear, and the other kills the
window border. Although, this is not a single key stroke, and can't
be assign to a workspace, it gave me what I needed. However, I've
recently discovered themes, and I've added title-bars to my windows
which I love:
newTheme :: ThemeInfo
newTheme = TI "" "" "" defaultTheme
myTheme :: ThemeInfo
myTheme =
newTheme { themeName = "myTheme"
, themeAuthor = "Ones Self"
, themeDescription = "My Theme"
, theme = defaultTheme { activeColor = "#8a999e"
, inactiveColor = "#545d75"
--, activeBorderColor = "white"
, activeBorderColor = "#8a999e"
--, inactiveBorderColor = "grey"
, inactiveBorderColor = "#545d75"
, activeTextColor = "white"
, inactiveTextColor = "grey"
, fontName = "-*-lucidatypewriter-bold-*-*-*-12-*-*-*-*-*-*-*"
, decoHeight = 12
, decoWidth = 2000
}
}
This presents a problem to fullscreen mode since the title-bars stay
visible.
- How can I define a key that will make title-bars disappear?
- Can I combine it with my current "make border disappear" key?
- Can I designate a workspace to always show windows in fullscreen
(meaning, no status bar gap, no window borders, and no window
title)?
- Can I define a single key that will toggle fullscreen for a given
workspace?
Thanks you very much,
