Issue 52: Some apps don't read size properly when Master in Tall mode http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=52 Comment #1 by SpencerJanssen: This is by design -- we ignore size hints to avoid ugly gaps between windows. You can use XMonadContrib.LayoutHints to respect the size hints of tiled windows.
