| 00:24:16 | <Twily[m]> | Hey, when I open the same workspace on different screens (one vertical and one horizontal) the width&height of floating windows changes drastically. |
| 00:24:41 | <Twily[m]> | Can I tell XMonad to not change the size of the floating windows like this? |
| 00:24:54 | <Twily[m]> | I remember I solved this somehow in the past but don’t remember how exactly |
| 00:39:19 | <geekosaur> | I don't think there is a solution; it remembers floating windows by RationalRects so they get rescaled |
| 00:42:42 | <Twily[m]> | Sad, this is extremely annoying, and I remember having the same issue years back |
| 00:44:01 | <Twily[m]> | I wonder what it would take if I were to patch this myselfƏ |
| 00:44:03 | <Twily[m]> | s/myselfƏ/myself?/ |
| 00:44:08 | <geekosaur> | I actually filed a ticket for it some time back because it's not only annoying but breaks some programs and some dialogs |
| 00:44:47 | <Twily[m]> | Maybe I can come up with a hack or something, like storing the sizes as some X props and restoring them as soon as window shows up on some workspace |
| 00:46:01 | <geekosaur> | oh, I guess it was actually opened by unclechu after I discussed it with them. https://github.com/xmonad/xmonad/issues/44 |
| 00:49:10 | <geekosaur> | I'm still unconvinced the current behavior is viable, even if it's technically correct (that is, programs for which it doesn't work are technically buggy) |
| 00:49:55 | <geekosaur> | de facto, if a dialog doesn't resize correctly with this (many gtk dialogs, for example), it's not going to be fixed |
| 00:53:27 | <Twily[m]> | The MR #221 liskin mentions seems to partially fix the problem. |
| 00:54:00 | <Twily[m]> | I remember in the past if I just open gmrun on a second screen it was all weirdly missized. |
| 00:54:19 | <Twily[m]> | Now it at least shows up correctly on every screen. |
| 00:54:21 | <geekosaur> | anyway the fix really needs to be made in XMonad.Operations.windows (one could conceivably do it in a logHook but floating windows will flicker and possibly become scrambled) |
| 00:54:33 | <Twily[m]> | The problem appears only when moving workspace between screens. |
| 00:55:04 | <Twily[m]> | Okay, thanks for pointing out. Maybe I could come up with a patch at some point. |
| 00:56:24 | <geekosaur> | https://github.com/xmonad/xmonad/blob/master/src/XMonad/Operations.hs#L197-L202 note line 198's use of `scaleRationalRect` in particulay |
| 00:56:30 | <geekosaur> | *particular |
| 00:56:56 | <Twily[m]> | Maybe I could even add an option to XConfig to make this behavior switchable and propose a merge |
| 00:57:14 | <geekosaur> | I'd support such a PR |
| 01:02:02 | <geekosaur> | I think the big problem is deciding what to do with the StackSet: currently floating windows are a Map Window RationalRect |
| 01:02:21 | <geekosaur> | if you want it to be configurable then I guess that has to become an Either |
| 01:35:27 | <ChaoticMist[m]> | Question, is there some secret recipe for making scripts called through xmonad config behave similar to scripts called from user terminal? Because cb seems to fail to copy content to user clipboard while the same script works when called from user terminal |
| 01:36:41 | <geekosaur> | I would expect that to work |
| 01:37:01 | <geekosaur> | usually when something doesn't it has to do with environment and in particular `$PATH` |
| 01:37:34 | <geekosaur> | because anything launched from a display manager doesn't read your dotfiles |
| 01:40:36 | <geekosaur> | I work around this on Ubuntu by having X startup read my dotfiles (https://github.com/geekosaur/xmonad.hs/blob/skkukuk/10profile dropped into `/etc/X11/Xsession.d`) but I don't know how well that'll work on other distros |
