Re: [e-users] push window to a different screen?
I've used these key functions for things like turning off the touchpad on
my eee (which didn't work in Linux by default) and getting the volume keys
to work.
As I say the script was very easy to out together and worked on my xfce and
E desktop. It is just the problem of finding the actual 'move to window x'
code, or rather how to call it from a script... Maybe a dev out there
watching this thread may be able to give you that code ?
I'll post my script tomorrow once I've found it again... :)

My question is, when I first start blender, it pops all 3 windows
open over each other on my primary monitor. I'd like to hotkey it so
I can say ctl-alt-1 to push one on my left monitor, and ctl-alt-3 to
push another onto my right monitor.
I configured: settings-settings panel-input-key\
bindings-window:moving-to {previous,next} screen to these hotkeys,
which appear as CTL+ALT+KP_END, and CTL+ALT+KP_NEXT respectively, but
they produce no observable effect.
Any ideas? What am I doing wrong?

Hi.
I've previously used the xev tool to find the full key code of a key,

Right now I'm not in front of my eeepc, but o remember it was very
easy to create a custom script to get the functionality I was looking
for.
I'll hunt down the info for you on Monday (rather got my hands full
for the weekend), if you are still looking for a solution and want
more details.

Hi David,
Enlightenment seems to understand that I've pressed the keys OK, it's
just that assigning these to the options 'to next screen' and 'to
previous screen' do not do anything. I've tried other key combos as
well with the same result. It's like the functions were not actually
implemented or something. Probably not used that often, and maybe they
got broken at some point, but went unnoticed. dunno.
But if you think you can use your method and make these window
moving functions work on Monday, then I would be most grateful.
Thanks for the reply.

if e can differentiate the windows, it can do this for you via remembers. ie
ICCCM properties it has name and class both at Blender every time you run it.
if it could add let's say Role props and allow you to set them on the cmdline
or modify name to be view1 or view2 or whatever u specify (keep class as it
is as that is often the per-app domain)...
i know of no such option for blender, but hunt to see if perhaps something
exists undocumented or maybe put in as a feature request. it's a trivial
request, but one that would allow power users as yourself to really make
blender do this out-of-the-box. the reason e can't do it is it just can't know
which window is which. they all are the same to it unless the app provides
specific identifiers that are set by the time the window is shown and this is
the apps job.
ps - you could do an LD_PRELOAD hack to override some xlib api calls that set
name and class hints - XSetClassHint() is the one you want. you're in advanced
land here.
I configured: settings-settings panel-input-key\
bindings-window:moving-to {previous,next} screen to these hotkeys,
which appear as CTL+ALT+KP_END, and CTL+ALT+KP_NEXT respectively, but

maybe it was broken on 0.17 - works on 0.19. :)
