I am trying to get maximization working with the MultiToggle module but Xmonad keeps crashing. Here is the layout and keybinding section of my conf file:

mylayoutHook = mkToggle (single FULL) ( Grid False ||| Accordion ||| ResizableTall 1 (3/100) (1/2) [] ||| tabbed shrinkText defaultTheme) keysToAdd x = [((modMask x, xK_m), sendMessage $ Toggle FULL)]

I can reproduce the problem by doing the following. Start Xmonad (starts off in Grid mode). Then `Alt-Space` to toggle Accordion, ResizableTall, tabbed, and back to Grid. `Alt-Space` again and the X server crashes. Here is my entire xmonad.hs file: import XMonad import XMonad.Layout import XMonad.Layout.Tabbed import XMonad.Layout.Accordion import XMonad.Layout.NoBorders import XMonad.Layout.HintedGrid import XMonad.Layout.ResizableTile import XMonad.Layout.ShowWName import XMonad.Layout.MultiToggle import XMonad.Layout.MultiToggle.Instances import Data.Map as M -- mylayoutHook = tabbed shrinkText defaultTheme ||| Accordion ||| ResizableTall 1 (3/100) (1/2) [] mylayoutHook = mkToggle (single FULL) ( Grid False ||| Accordion ||| ResizableTall 1 (3/100) (1/2) [] ||| tabbed shrinkText defaultTheme) newKeys x = let initial_ks = XMonad.keys defaultConfig x in add $ remove $ initial_ks where remove ks = M.difference ks (M.fromList $ keysToRemove x) add ks = M.union ks (M.fromList $ keysToAdd x) keysToRemove :: XConfig Layout -> [((KeyMask, KeySym),X ())] keysToRemove x = [((modMask x, xK_p ), return ()),((modMask x, xK_b), return ()), ((modMask x, xK_n), return ())] keysToAdd :: XConfig Layout -> [((KeyMask, KeySym),X ())] keysToAdd x = [((modMask x, xK_m), sendMessage $ Toggle FULL)] main = xmonad $ defaultConfig { XMonad.keys = newKeys, layoutHook = showWName mylayoutHook } Thanks for your help ... -deech On Mon, Jan 5, 2009 at 1:11 PM, Richard Riley wrote:

Hi all, I would like to maximize my focused window. There are three modules in the Xmonad-contrib library : XMonad.Layout.Magnifier, XMonad.Layout.Maximize, XMonad.Layout.MultiToggle. They all appear to implement maximizing.

Any recommendations?

You might consider using toggle full. e.g

myCommonLayouts = ewmhDesktopsLayout $ avoidStruts $ (toggleLayouts Full Circle) ||| (toggleLayouts Full tiled) ||| Mirror (toggleLayouts Full (TwoPane (3/100) (1/2))) where tiled = Tall nmaster delta ratio nmaster = 1 delta = 3/100 ratio = 1/2

and

,((modMask(myConfig), xK_f), sendMessage ToggleLayout)
