dominik:
Hy, I wanted to replace defaultGap with ManageDocks as everybody seems to recommend this and I wanted to play arround a little bit.
But I ran into problems: I use xmobar as my StatusBar and the attached config. As you can see I commented defaultGaps out and used avoidStruts in my LayoutHook. In my Configfile there are two LaytouHooks, the upper one (commented out) is the one I use but in order to see if its a problem regarding "onWorkspace" I created the second Hook which is far more simple.
Using this config nothing happens if I start up xmonad concerning my xmobar. It gets hidden by every window I create. ManageDock seems to recognize XMobar as I am not able to switch to it using Mod+Tab (which is fine!). Am I thinking wrong about the avoidStruts Method or using it wrong?
Who can give me a hint?
I think this is an xmobar bug, not setting override-redirect? -- Don
