Hi,
in wmii, let's say I go to a new tag, open a window, make sure it's not
floating but rather the default layout.
then i fullscreen this window.
then i launch a new window (using dmenu or whatever)
result: new window opens, but:
1) it's floating
2) it has focus
If I then unfloat this window, 2 things happen:
1) it goes to the fullscreet layout (hooray)
2) it doesn't get focus (it's "behind" the first window)
Why is manual intervention needed? Can't it just spawn fullscreen in the
background?
I'm really confused by this message. I'm not quite sure what
you're describing or what the problem is.
Fullscreen mode works more or less like this:
1. Fullscreen windows are in the floating layer.
2. Other floating layer windows may be in front of or behind
any other floating layer windows, including fullscreen
ones.
3. When a floating window is focused, new windows open in the
floating layer.
4. New windows (almost) always receive focus when they open.
5. New floating windows always open at the top of the stack.
