It should look like this instead: isVisible w ws = any ((w ==) . tag . workspace) (visible ws) lazyView w ws = if isVisible w ws then ws else view w ws main = xmonad $ ewmh gnomeConfig { manageHook = manageHook gnomeConfig <+> composeAll myManageHook, workspaces = myWorkspaces, modMask = mod4Mask, -- makes all xmonad shortcuts be "Windows key + X" (thus not interfering with any app's) borderWidth = 3, normalBorderColor = "#cccccc", focusedBorderColor = "#cd8b00", layoutHook = showWName myLayout } `additionalKeysP` myKeys Good luck, ~d Quoting Lara Michaels <laramichaels1978@yahoo.com>:
Hello! Many thanks for your help.
There may be a contrib module for this. I don't know. In any case, some untested code follows:
isVisible w ws = any ((w ==) . tag . workspace) (visible ws) lazyView w ws = if isVisible w ws then ws else view w ws
You can then use lazyView exactly as you would use view or greedyView (it should have the same type).
I must be placing this code in the wrong part of my xmonad.hs file. I edited the 'main' segment so that it reads:
main = xmonad $ ewmh gnomeConfig { manageHook = manageHook gnomeConfig <+> composeAll myManageHook, workspaces = myWorkspaces, modMask = mod4Mask, -- makes all xmonad shortcuts be "Windows key + X" (thus not interfering with any app's) borderWidth = 3, normalBorderColor = "#cccccc", focusedBorderColor = "#cd8b00", layoutHook = showWName myLayout, isVisible w ws = any ((w ==) . tag . workspace) (visible ws), lazyView w ws = if isVisible w ws then ws else view w ws } `additionalKeysP` myKeys
but I get an error message saying
xmonad.hs:59:11: parse error on input `w'
where line 59 is the one defining (?) isVisible. If someone knows what I am doing wrong, that would be great.
Many thanks! ~l
