Sorry if I ask, but I don't use this stuff (I don't have to hardware for): do you think that the effects you are noticing are an improvement, or a bug?
IMHO this would be a bug. Since the other windows are on their tabs and not in the background.
just a terminology clarification: a tab, for you, is just the representation of a window ("windows are on their tabs"), and so you think they should not be visible through the transparent, focused, window, right? if that is right, I think that the last patch I've sent here: http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=125 should fix your problem. I'm writing that, because, in my vision, a tabbed layout is just a stack of full screen windows *plus* their tabs. I would expect that, if I resize the window at the top, I should be able to see the second window, and if I resize this second, I can see the third. This way I can user the WindowArranger with tabbed too. The patch that I sent, though, should make the both of us happy, since we can have both a tabbed layout with just the focused window, and a tabbed layout as I conceive it. As you may understand what I did was just implementing *my* idea of a tabbed layout. Cheers, Andrea
