Hi. I use XMonad mostly with the Full layout, and switch between applications with the keyboard, but I wanted to be able to minimize windows occasionally. The idea is to get them out of the way so I can more quickly switch between other windows. Anyway, I almost got what I wanted with something like so, trying to follow online documentation (and guessing at what wasn't clear to me): code: -------- myLayout = boringWindows (minimize (Full ||| tiled)) ||| tiled -------- The minimizing part seems to work fine (minimized windows don't display). However, when I switch through the the windows with the keyboard, minimized windows apparently are still receiving focus. So, for example, if I have three minimized windows, between two regular ones, I will have to focus down three times before being switched between the two. (Thank you for your patience. I have to admit it's been quite a while since I did any Haskell programming, so I've forgotten most of the basics.) -- frigidcode.com indicium.us
