19:46:00 <nurnochgeist> hey:)) i was told that this was a place where i could ask simple xmonad questions
19:46:18 <nurnochgeist> this seems pretty simple but i can't seem to find a reference for it:
19:48:10 <nurnochgeist> say i have a workspace that has two open windows, and i want to change what is in one of the two windows (like for example switch which .pdf-file is displayed in zathura or which .tex-file is displayed in my tex-editor)
19:48:19 <nurnochgeist> is there a short way to do it?
19:55:04 <liskin> It's not really the window manager's job to interact with what's inside of windows, so unless you already know how to tell zathura or your tex editor to switch a file, not sure we can help.
19:56:24 <nurnochgeist> oh ok because the arch wiki said something like "However, if you are using a window manager which provides a tabbed layout, you can just make use of those"
19:57:37 <nurnochgeist> and i imagined something like having the second pdf-file open on the second workspace and then using a keyboard-shortcut to switch the content of the second workspace with the content of the currently active window
19:58:07 <liskin> Oh, that might work, yeah
19:58:33 <liskin> Or you can use sublayouts to really tab those zathura windows in one space
20:00:52 <liskin> https://xmonad.github.io/xmonad-docs/xmonad-contrib-0.16.999/XMonad-Actions-WindowGo.html#v:ifWindow is one way to search for a window across workspaces
20:00:58 <liskin> there may be other ways elsewhere
20:03:27 <nurnochgeist> thank you that sounds like what i'm looking for !

22:12:46 <vojjvoda[m]> <nurnochgeist> "and i imagined something like..." <- There is a tabbed layout for xmonad, but also you can use "tabbed" suckless program, or even monocle layout and then just rotating the window stack
