Make floating windows respect docks

Hi, Is it possible to have new floating windows placed in a way that does not cover docks (avoidStruts ?)? Maybe even neither a dock nor another floating window? best, -- Philipp Haselwarter

Hello, Take a look at: http://xmonad.org/xmonad-docs/xmonad-contrib/XMonad-Hooks-Place.html If you use withGaps, all your issues will be addressed. It doesn't look like there's code to figure out the gaps avoidStruts has unfortunately. -- Adam * On Sunday, July 10 2011, Philipp Haselwarter wrote:

Thanks a bunch, the smart placing is quite handy! Respecting the gaps as done otherwise with avoidStruts would be nice, but the static gaps are a good start already. -- Philipp Haselwarter
