I have a workspace called "music" and I'm trying to shift the Spotify linux client there. I put this as part of my manage hook, but it doesn't seem to work. Spotify starts up in whatever workspace I happen to be (this works fine for many other apps).
, className =? "Spotify" --> doShift "music"
, className =? "spotify" --> doShift "music"
, title =? "spotify" --> doShift "music"
Looking at xprop, I see the following:
_NET_WM_ICON(CARDINAL) =
WM_CLASS(STRING) = "spotify", "Spotify"
WM_NAME(STRING) = "Spotify"
_NET_WM_NAME(UTF8_STRING) = "Spotify"
_NET_WM_DESKTOP(CARDINAL) = 2
WM_STATE(WM_STATE):
window state: Normal
icon window: 0x0
XdndProxy(WINDOW): window id # 0x4c00002
WM_NORMAL_HINTS(WM_SIZE_HINTS):
program specified location: 0, 0
window gravity: Static
_NET_WM_PID(CARDINAL) = 8317
WM_LOCALE_NAME(STRING) = "en_US.UTF-8"
WM_CLIENT_MACHINE(STRING) = "eyal"
WM_PROTOCOLS(ATOM): protocols WM_DELETE_WINDOW, _NET_WM_PING
Is Spotify not setting something right or not at the right time?
