Now we have the name of the window dwm needs to be self aware of. Sometimes an application will have multiple windows of itself and will report one window without capital letters, while the second will have no capital letters! Wildcard char is allowed within window names and I currently have no idea how many regular expressions are recognized here. Upgrading from dwm To resolve, compile and install dwm Or, uncompress the dwm If there are conflicts with the default dwm ALT key conflicting with other console interface applications, use the ESC key while within the console application.
The ESC key is an immediate usable fall back escape key. To assign a second Meta key allowing a typer to have a Meta key on both sides of the keyboard, mimmick or copy this key activity to another key on the keyboard. The Microsoft Menu key or context menu key on Microsoft keyboards is directly opposite of the Microsoft Windows key. Now, a user should have a non-conflicting and easily accessible Meta key on both sides of the keyboard! Java application are known to misbehave as java doesn't know which WM are we using.
After all this result in GUI of specific java application to don't work properly. To solve this we need to install wmname tool and set it to LG3D. Sometimes the background may not properly redraw when the current view is switched. For example, some terminal emulators such as st don't draw the entirety of their allocated window space.
In these cases, X root window must have a properly defined color. So, you want to switch to that directory and then apply any patches in prepare - including any changes to config.
I'm a bit at a loss for what's happening now. I believe it may have something to do with what seth said below about the cp line which echos an earlier comment by crmullins. It's like the error says: you have defined bstack and bstackhoriz but not used them.
Post the bstack patch and your patched config. The patch adds the layouts and corresponding keybindings to the config. This points to the same question raised in some of my earlier posts which I still don't have entirely clear to me even after reading your comments and the wiki.
How to do I keep the changes to the config. Am I better off removing the config. You can just copy the edited config. A separate git branch makes that simple. FWIW, applying three patches at once is asking for trouble. Add them one at a time to determine what is failing To incorporate the patches one by one, do i simply do makepkg -efi after the first patch has been added to avoid redownloading the original source code?
I want to make sure that any edits to the config. What do you mean exactly by a separate git branch here? The bstack patch affects config. The other errors are not caused by the patch but some follow-up thing, yet may have the same cause eg. Yea, that makes sense. Also make sure that if you're operating in an existing build tree, that there's no stale config.
There are 3 config. However, the patches edit the. Again, this is one my recurring confusions - why there are so many config. And if patches make changes to the config. No, you misunderstood. It doesn't generate any errors. I'm obviously not understanding the cp line correctly: if I copy the config. So do I then just copy the patched config.
This is what you seemed to indicate in your comment 15 above. Indeed, Seth earlier indicated that I should be copying a static file, which I take to mean a config. If you are adding additional changes to the config above and beyond what the patches include , you edit those manually prior to patching.
Otherwise, just use the patched version. Understood, so if I manually want to change keybindings, for instance, I will make those changes to the respective lines of config. Yet how come the bstack changes to the config. From this point on, when you wish to end the X session, simply execute killall xinit , or bind it to a convenient keybind. Alternatively, you could setup your dwm session script so that it relaunches dwm only if the binary changes.
This could be useful in the case where you change a setting or update the dwm code base. Then simply add the following to the startup script e.
By default, dwm's bar adds 2px around the size of the font. To change this, modify the following line in dwm. To disable focus follows mouse behaviour comment out the following line in definiton of struct handler in dwm. Note that this change can cause some difficulties; the first click on an inactive window will only bring the focus to it.
To interact with window contents buttons, fields etc you need to click again. Also, if you have several monitors, you may notice that the keyboard focus does not switch to another monitor activated by clicking.
For some windows, such as preferences dialogs, it does not make sense for these windows to be tiled - they should be free-floating instead. For example, to make Firefox's preferences dialog float, add the following to your rules array in config. You have to edit dwm's config.
The word "Tilda" has to be uppercase firefox needs lowercase , as shown by. It is important you enable the pulldown-animation, otherwise Tilda will keep jumping down each time you unhide it, must be a dwm issue. Also see the Java page. If there are empty gaps of desktop space outside terminal windows, it is likely due to the terminal's font size.
Either adjust the size until finding the ideal scale that closes the gap, or toggle resizehints to 0 in config.
