Re: Is it possible to foce Java applications to conform to the layout?
The parent is a window that is painted and immediately made invisible on the screen, it's hard to notice it. From what I could see it didn't look like it fit into the layout either. Is there anything that can be done without changing the source code of KeePassX?

Is there something I can do to force them to conform to the layout I am using? In the case of KeePassX the first window, asking me for a password and optionally a keyfile is displaying the problem described above. However, the next window that opens indeed fits into the layout. I don't know if that information is of any help, but I wrote it just in case. :-) Right now, Kent Larsson wrote: [...] I'll show you some KeePassX data. xprop for the first Window of KeePassX asking me for password and/or key: [...] _NET_WM_STATE(ATOM) = _NET_WM_STATE_MODAL WM_TRANSIENT_FOR(WINDOW): window id # 0x197 [...] _NET_WM_WINDOW_TYPE(ATOM) = _NET_WM_WINDOW_TYPE_DIALOG, _NET_WM_WINDOW_TYPE_NORMAL [...] When closing that Window KeePassX opens the normal usage Window. It behaves as it should and fits into the layout. The xprop for it reads: [...] _NET_WM_WINDOW_TYPE(ATOM) = _NET_WM_WINDOW_TYPE_NORMAL The password-asking window is a dialog in state modal. That means that it's parent (0x197, dunno which window that is) is unusable as long as this window is open. As a result, awesome will make the client floating and place it above its parent. So what is the parent client here? The second window has type modal and no _NET_WM_STATE, so it acts like a normal window. :-) So, what is the parent and why does this not have the right behavior?

Make a rule that calls awful.client.floating.set(c, false) on the client. I think that should make it be tiled. Cheers, Uli -- Q: Because it reverses the logical flow of conversation.

Hi I just installed awesomewm on Fedora 15, I am having a problem I can't open anything just switch through desktops right click works fine I guess left clicks works also but for example I click open terminal but nothing comes out. Ps. I am a very beginner.
Re: Welcome to awesome@naquadah.org
Maybe the problem is your menu, not the clicking. Try opening an aplication (Super + R and typing the command) and see if the clicks work there.

I can open the awesome menu, but I only can quit and restart the other 2 edit config and manual don't work either, I don't have the super key on my laptop.
Re: Welcome to awesome@naquadah.org
so to get the very basics covered first: you *right-click* on the desktop to get the menu, but *left-click* to activate a menu-entry, and nothing happens, right? alternatively, you *left-click* on the a-symbol and *left-click* on a menu item and nothing happens? either or both are correct?

Yea that was the problem, xterm wasn't installed by default on Fedora. Thanks a lot.
