Re: [xmonad] fadeInactiveLogHook on dual monitor with nvidia

If this is the case you'll also have a fight on your hands if you want both a composite manager enabled for the fade and Xinerama to float windows between screens. I'm not aware of any current composite manager that doesn't conflict with Xinerama; so disable it as well in your troubleshooting if it's currently enabled. On 16/04/13 23:53, Brandon Allbery wrote:

Basically fadeInactiveLogHook is not working. I would like the inactive windows to fade slightly as this helps me focus on the right terminal.

Are you running a compositing manager? The fade hooks only set window properties for a compositing manager; xmonad is not itself a compositing manager, and I'm not sure it should try to get into that business. (Go look at how compositing managers for X11 work to see why.) compton seems to be the most reliable of the standalone compositing managers, although all of them have bugs.
