Hi everyone, In earlier versions of xmonad, when pressing the full screen button while watching a flash-movie, a new window would be opened, integrated in whichever layout one was using at the time, and the video, now running in "full-screen-mode", would take as much screen-real-estate as xmonad was willing to let it have. This behavior has changed with recent versions of xmonad (or at least the version that I am currently running). A new window with the movie is still created, however, the movie now runs with the same resolution as the screen. For example, if you're running the Tiled-layout and start a flash-movie within Firefox, you would see the Firefox-window on the right and the video-window on the left, however, now the movie being cut off in the middle. (I also have the issue that when the video-window is loosing focus, it disappears, e.g. when moving the mouse out of the window, or when changing layouts, or when switching workspaces.) I was always thinking of the old behavior of xmonad as a feature. A program running in "full-screen" would optimize itself according to the real-estate you -- as a user -- are willing to give to it. This had great advantages. You could watch a taped university lecture on youtube in full-screen WHILE looking things up on the web, etc. This is not possible anymore, as each program running in "full-screen-mode" actually thinks that it would have the *full screen* available. So, I have two questions. 1) I compiled xmonad from source. Where in the code would I need to change what to get the old behavior back, handling full-screen movies? I would be really thankful, if someone could point me into the right direction. Where to look, what to change, etc.? Or even better, is it possible to trigger this within ones xmonad.hs? Thanks so much for help. 2) I would propose going back to the old behavior of handling full-screen-programs in xmonad. It really should be the *user* who decides how "full-screen" a full-screen-program shall be. Isn't this also more following the philosophy of xmonad? You as a user decide, what is happening on your screen? It might be not as intuitive, when switching to xmonad and you are used to other WMs, where full-screen means *full screen*. I really miss that functionality, now that its gone. What do you think? Cheers, Thomas
