thanks, will this be merged into next version's xmonad? i'm using xmonad + xmonad-contrib in archlinux and not really want to change my package;) lars On Tue, 08 Sep 2009, Wirt Wolff wrote:

Hi everyone, I'm quite new to XMonad and haskell itself, so I really don't know if it's a problem of my configuration file or it's the default behaviour of XMonad. Everytime I make a window floating, the tiled windows in background swap between themselves, without any reason or fixed rule. If I replace them in the order I want, they re-swap as soon as I move/resize the floated window. I'm using Linux Gentoo and XMonad 0.8.1. Thanks in advance.
The darcs version of XMonad uses less disruptive method for mousing floating windows. You could use the xmonad-contrib-darcs ebuild from the haskell overlay (uses xmonad-darcs and haskell x11-darcs too). Or copy the following shiftMaster from darcs XMonad.StackSet into your xmonad.hs and use the newer mouse bindings:
-- other imports import qualified XMonad.StackSet as W import qualified Data.Map as M
-- | /O(s)/. Set the master window to the focused window. -- The other windows are kept in order and shifted down on the stack, -- as if you just hit mod-shift-k a bunch of times. -- Focus stays with the item moved. shiftMaster :: StackSet i l a s sd -> StackSet i l a s sd shiftMaster = modify' $ \c -> case c of Stack _ [] _ -> c -- already master. Stack t ls rs -> Stack t [] (reverse ls ++ rs)
darcsMouseBindings (XConfig {XMonad.modMask = modm}) = M.fromList $ [ ((modm, button1), (\w -> focus w >> mouseMoveWindow w >> windows W.shiftMaster)) , ((modm, button2), (\w -> focus w >> windows W.shiftMaster)) , ((modm, button3), (\w -> focus w >> mouseResizeWindow w >> windows W.shiftMaster)) ]
main = xmonad defaultConfig { mouseBindings = darcsMouseBindings -- other changes }
