Quoting Zach Hirsch
be due to the window borders; using NoBorders fixes this, but it also removes the borders _between_ windows, which I don't want. Is there some way to remove just the outside borders?
There currently is not. xmonad ships out to X11 for drawing borders, and the borders you can ask X11 to draw are quite rudimentary. If you want to implement this, you have basically two choices: 1. make a layout modifier that creates new windows on each side of all the current windows and draws in them (similar to how tabbed layouts currently work) 2. overhaul xmonad to become a reparenting window manager and draw in the parent window Neither of them looks very simple to me. =) ~d
