Re: [xmonad] Hopefully Very Simple Question

There's also `XMonad.Hooks.Place` — I use it everywhere in place of `doFloat`. It's pretty nice. On Thu, Apr 14, 2022 at 6:11 AM Platon Pronko wrote:

Hi!

Interestingly my dialogs already center on screen automatically, even though I use standard doFloat. I suppose this is related to the window hints that different applications and DEs provide (I'm using XFCE).

Anyway, can also recommend using doRectFloat if you want to have even more control over where the floated window will be placed.

If you're using `doFloat` now to float them, you may want to look at `doCenterFloat` from `XMonad.Hooks.ManageHelpers`.

Greetings:

I am very happy with my xmonad now. Fixed it with your help and the help of the DT (YouTube) community though this community was able to help me the most. THANK-YOU!

My new issue is annoying to me and not something that keeps the system from working. I am using isDialog to spawn dialog boxes as floating windows. They spawn floating but show up to the right top of the screen. I would like them always be centered. Is this possible and if so how do I modify the layout statement?

Thanks,

Regards, Michael Needham
