Re: [xmonad] Is there a way to reparent a window manually?

Hi! Tried adding all the event masks, no effect. Even more, even if I remove all events from the mask except X.ExposureMask then mouse movement and keyboard buttons still work. Best regards, Platon Pronko On 2021-04-23 01:07, Brandon Allbery wrote:

It seems that this could be happening due to XMonad being non-reparenting (I ran the same app under XFCE, and it seems to work okay).

This would not surprise me; it looks like they use Mono on Linux/Mac, and as yet there is no way to tell Mono that the window manager is non-reparenting so canvas widgets get messed up (they can't find themselves, since X11 uses window-relative addressing instead of screen-relative like Windows/.NET).

Any idea about what am I missing? Maybe my event masks are wrong?

You probably want all of the button-related events (see https://tronche.com/gui/x/xlib/events/mask.html https://tronche.com/gui/x/xlib/events/mask.html) so they'll be passed on to the child window.
