Hi Magnus,
2009/10/28 Magnus Therning
I start three terminals, t1, t2 and t3, I then switch to TwoPane and
have a screen showing t1 and t2 (t1|t2). What I want is to have t1 next to t3, so I jump through the windows until I have t1|t3. However, if I now want to switch focus to t1 I can't seem do that without changing what windows are visible, however I do it I end up with t1|t2. What I have to do is get t3 over to the master area, then jump through until I have t3|t1. I have to redo the same steps if I after that want to switch focus to t3.
I'm using DragPane, but I had the same problem. What works for me is to make sure the focus is in the master area, and then use Alt-Tab until the app I want is in the other pane.

I use rotFucused* from X.A.CycleWindows to change the focused window of either pane independently.
Works great.
import XMonad.Actions.CycleWindows (rotFocusedUp, rotFocusedDown)
-- note: EZConfig notation , ("M-C-k", rotFocusedUp ) -- Rotate windows up through current focus , ("M-C-j", rotFocusedDown) -- Rotate windows down through current focus
I'll have to look into that... though I must say I was hoping to not have to add even more keybindings. In my naïvete I assumed that my use case was exactly what TwoPane was there to solve ;-) /M -- Magnus Therning (OpenPGP: 0xAB4DFBA4) magnus＠therning．org Jabber: magnus＠therning．org http://therning.org/magnus identi.ca|twitter: magthe
