Hello, I am including two new instances of dzen2 to monitor my local box and a remote machine using a piped conky. It mostly works, however there's a minor -I hope- glitch. The two new instances of dzen appears above the windows. There's another -previous- instance of dzen on the top of the screen which I use to log info about the workspaces, layouts and window title. That one fits ok into the layout without a problem. http://jesgue.homelinux.org/other-files/3-dzens.jpg In the pic you can see the problem illustrated. And the relevant snippet from my config is: ===================================== -- dynamiclog pretty printer for dzen robPP h = defaultPP { ppCurrent = wrap "^fg(#000000)^bg(#0390e1)^p(2)" "^p(2)^fg()^bg()" , ppHidden = wrap "^fg(#0390e1)" "^fg()^bg()" , ppHiddenNoWindows = wrap "^fg(grey70)" "^fg()^bg()" , ppSep = " ^fg(gray70)^r(3x3)^fg() " , ppTitle = dzenColor "#90e103" "" . wrap "[ " " ]" , ppOutput = hPutStrLn h } statusBarCmd = "dzen2 -bg '#222222' -fg '#00ff00' -sa c -fn '-*-dejavu sans-*-r-*-*-12-*-*-*-*-*-*-*' -e '' -xs 1" statusBarCmd2 = "ssh root@server conky | dzen2 -bg '#222222' -fg '#00ff00' -sa l -fn '-*-dejavu sans-*-r-*-*-11-*-*-*-*-*-*-*' -e '' -xs 1 -y 1160" statusBarCmd3 = "conky -c ~/.conkyrc-xmonad | dzen2 -bg '#222222' -fg '#00ff00' -sa l -fn '-*-dejavu sans-*-r-*-*-11-*-*-*-*-*-*-*' -e '' -xs 1 -y 1180" main = do din <- spawnPipe statusBarCmd din2 <- spawnPipe statusBarCmd2 din3 <- spawnPipe statusBarCmd3 xmonad $ defaultConfig { terminal = myTerminal , focusFollowsMouse = myFocusFollowsMouse , borderWidth = myBorderWidth , modMask = myModMask , numlockMask = myNumlockMask , workspaces = myWorkspaces , normalBorderColor = myNormalBorderColor , focusedBorderColor = myFocusedBorderColor , keys = myKeys , mouseBindings = myMouseBindings , manageHook = manageDocks <+> manageHook defaultConfig <+> myManageHook , logHook = dynamicLogWithPP $ robPP din , layoutHook = myLayout , startupHook = myStartupHook } ===================================== My question is why does one instance of dzen is respected by the layout, and the other two are ignored? Or, how to make the two dzens at the bottom fit into my layout, so they do not mess up the visibility of my windows. Thanks for reading. -- Jesús Guerrero
