| 00:32:33 | <geekosaur> | I am pretty sure it doesn't put screens on the "right" workspaces to begin with unless you intersperse the workspace names (use `transpose`) or you force the switch in `startupHook` |
| 00:32:34 | <haskellbridge> | <rascasse> Perhaps is it expected for this plugin to work to have multiple X screens, one by monitor? |
| 00:32:54 | <geekosaur> | no, xmonad doesn't support X screens at all |
| 00:36:39 | <geekosaur> | I thought maybe withScreens transposed them, but it doesn't so on startup you'd definitely get screen 0 workspaces on screen 1 unless there were exactly 1 workspace in the list |

| 02:32:26 | <haskellbridge> | <rascasse> the only missing bit is how can I focus back the main screen (so first workspace on the list) after the switch in the startupHook ? |
| 02:33:17 | <haskellbridge> | <rascasse> I mean I can do it with "windows (viewOnScreen 0 "1")" |
| 02:33:55 | <haskellbridge> | <rascasse> but any "cleaner" solution? avoiding that unnecessary ws switch |

| 02:35:47 | <haskellbridge> | <geekosaur (@geekosaur:matrix.org)> the startupHook one should be something like "windows (onScreen (W.shift "whatever") FocusCurrent 1)". "viewOnScreen" focuses the new workspace, like "view" does |
| 02:36:43 | <haskellbridge> | <geekosaur (@geekosaur:matrix.org)> (or equivalently it is "windows (onScreen (W.shift "whatever") FocusNew 1)", which is not what you want) |

| 02:38:20 | <haskellbridge> | <geekosaur (@geekosaur:matrix.org)> oh right, ""whatever"" is ""r"" in your case |
| 02:38:54 | <haskellbridge> | <rascasse> but "W.shift" is to move a given window to a given workspace right? |
| 02:39:07 | <haskellbridge> | <geekosaur (@geekosaur:matrix.org)> whoops, right, you wanted "W.view" |
| 02:39:21 | <haskellbridge> | <geekosaur (@geekosaur:matrix.org)> trying to do too many things at once, sorry |
| 02:39:57 | <haskellbridge> | <rascasse> np, yeah purpose is to first, focus the correct ws on screen 1; then focus back on screen 0 |
| 02:40:08 | <haskellbridge> | <geekosaur (@geekosaur:matrix.org)> oh, and there's a shortcut call for that too. "windows (onlyOnScreen 1 "r")" |
| 02:42:47 | <haskellbridge> | <rascasse> yup that's the trick thx |

| 02:49:14 | <haskellbridge> | <rascasse> any way to have it limited _by screen_, so only switching to ws used on the current screen? |
| 02:50:00 | <haskellbridge> | <rascasse> like https://xmonad.github.io/xmonad-docs/xmonad-contrib/XMonad-Actions-CycleWorkspaceByScreen.html |
| 02:50:29 | <haskellbridge> | <rascasse> but sadly this module does not exposes a "toggleRecentWS" action |
| 02:50:35 | <haskellbridge> | <rascasse> * expose |
| 03:12:30 | <haskellbridge> | <rascasse> anyway I can fallback to "("M-<Tab>", cycleWorkspaceOnCurrentScreen [xK_Super_L] xK_h xK_l)" |
| 03:13:17 | <haskellbridge> | <rascasse> and repeat pressing Meta + Tab to switch back and forth btw 2 hot workspaces |
| 03:14:05 | <haskellbridge> | <rascasse> perhaps it could be improved by https://xmonad.github.io/xmonad-docs/xmonad-contrib/XMonad-Actions-Repeatable.html |

| 03:20:01 | <haskellbridge> | <rascasse> yeaa it works! thx |
| 03:37:14 | <haskellbridge> | <rascasse> what's the best solution to customize the default layout of a specific workspace? |
| 03:39:42 | <haskellbridge> | <rascasse> probably Layout.PerWorkspace |

| 03:48:40 | <haskellbridge> | <rascasse> okay one limitation I see now, is when Im on the 2nd screen on the "r" workspace, where is currently my element chat window |

| 03:50:37 | <haskellbridge> | <geekosaur (@geekosaur:matrix.org)> the best you can do about that is https://hackage.haskell.org/package/xmonad-contrib-0.18.1/docs/XMonad-Hooks-EwmhDesktops.html#v:setEwmhActivateHook to prevent the browser from switching workspaces by itself when it wants to grab focus |
| 03:51:21 | <haskellbridge> | <rascasse> do the IndepentScreens approach would solve that? |
| 03:51:22 | <haskellbridge> | <geekosaur (@geekosaur:matrix.org)> mm, maybe it's possible to write an alternative "doFocus" |
| 03:51:35 | <haskellbridge> | <geekosaur (@geekosaur:matrix.org)> no, the browser will still insist on wrecking your setup |
| 03:51:51 | <haskellbridge> | <rascasse> okok |
