Re: [xmonad] IM layout configuration for Psi

Try this in xmonad.hs (if you're using 0.8 if not update now! ;) ): gridIM (1%7) (ClassName "psi") That would give you a Grid layout modified so 1%7 of the space is used by the roster window, you can apply the IM modifier to other layouts using: withIM (1%7) (ClassName "psi") Layout (replace Layout with your desired layout to modify) In both cases you can use (Title "title_of_the_roster_window") instead of ClassName. You can reach the IM layout documentation at: http://xmonad.org/xmonad-docs/xmonad-contrib/XMonad-Layout-IM.html byebye! On Wed, Oct 08, 2008 at 11:44:05AM -0700, Matt Brown wrote:

I tried a few different ways using xprop as a guide, but still no luck. Any more tips?

from xmonad.hs:

1st attempt: IM (1%7) (Or (ClassName "psi") (And (ClassName "Skype") (And (Role "") (Not (Title "Options")))))

2nd attempt: IM (1%7) (Or (Role "psimain") (And (ClassName "Skype") (And (Role "") (Not (Title "Options")))))

3rd attempt: IM (1%7) (Or (Title "Psi") (And (ClassName "Skype") (And (Role "") (Not (Title "Options")))))

Note: i was testing with only the psi buddy list window and terminals, to be certain no other windows might have "psi" in their props. Figured once I was able to match the buddy list window, then I could refine it to make sure no other psi window is matched.

the main psi window xprops:

Hello all,

I'm trying to set up the IM layout for the Psi xmpp client. I found a working config for skype online, and tried tweaking it for psi, but no luck so far. Has anyone else done this? Is there a way to dump the window properties for a window, to give me a better idea how to configure?
