If one has one or more fillscreen window(s) on a screen and one or more floating window(s) on a screen and is using <mod1> Tab, or <mod1> j and <mod1> k to cycle focus between the windows, is there a way to have each window moved to the top when it receives focus.
As a manual solution, press Mod+Enter to bring a window to the front. Mod+Shift+{J,K} will reorder windows, also. You could append “ >> windows W.swapMaster” to the Mod+{Tab,J,K} bindings in your config, as well.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think this user's issue is that the floating window stays above the tiled full screen window, which, as far as I know is always true of floating windows, and so it won't be helped by reordering the windows. I don't see any reasonable way around this, other than to send the floating window to another workspace.
