Issue 142 in xmonad: Tab selection and highlighting doesn't work as expected

Issue 142: Tab selection and highlighting doesn't work as expected http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=142 New issue report by v.dijk.bas: (Possibly related to issue 125) When using the Tabbed layout the selection and highlighting of the tabs doesn't work as expected. What steps will reproduce the problem? 1. Switch to the Tabbed layout. 2. Open multiple windows. 3. Select a tab by clicking on that tab. 4. Move the mouse away from the tabs into the selected window. 5. Select another tab by clicking on that tab. 6. Notice that the selected window becomes active like you expect. However, the selected tab is not highlighted as you would expect. In fact, if you look closely, it is only highlighted for a fraction of a second after which the previously selected tab is highlighted. The real problem however is when you select tabs while your cursor doesn't move out of the tabs region. Then, when you select another tab and then try to select the previous tab (which is still highlighted) you won't be able to select it. (This is quite irritating) I'm using a recent version of xmonad and XMonadContrib from darcs: Thu Feb 21 2008 (I'm using a NoBorder LayoutModifier over my Tabbed layout. But also without this I have the same problem.)

It would be nice if the documentation made clear that the tag should be in the Labels in the "Issue attributes" area, not in-line like that. Suppose I should dig up a contact at Google, since I don't think we have any control over that (or do we? template?) -- brandon s. allbery [solaris,freebsd,perl,pugs,haskell] allbery@kf8nh.com system administrator [openafs,heimdal,too many hats] allbery@ece.cmu.edu electrical and computer engineering, carnegie mellon university KF8NH
