Thanks for the fixes! I'm a bit busy at the moment, but I will try to get wmii-3.6-rc1 out of the door ASAP. > Thanks to Uriel for pushing the changes to tip! > To sum up the known issues: > 1) collapsed clients outside stacked mode don't always uncollapse when > they receive focus I'm not sure this is a bug, in non-stacked (or max) mode focus should not change size, so if things stay collapsed it is ok (I think). > 2) resizing within a column affects clients it shouldn't (seems to > average client size?) Yes, this is annoying, but I don't think it is a showstopper for 3.6. > 3) you should be able to create columns with the mouse (wasn't working > at the point I started on the code) I'm not sure how this would even work... I would rather have a 'push to new col' command which could be triggered via the fs (from the keyboard, a button, a tagbar once they work properly, whatever). In any case, is this a showstopper? > 4) wmii's fullscreen (MOD+f) acts funny with some apps (qiv) I didn't even know we had this feature, is it really all that important/useful? > 5) support for apps native full screen modes sucks (qiv [drops behind > managed layer], gqview [window appears slightly offscreen], firefox > [titlebar doesn't come back when you return from fullscreen]) This IMHO is the greatest issue, I know it was fixed at some point, sad to see it broken again, I hate X... > 6) grab boxes suck Indeed, but I probably would leave fixing them for wmii-4. So, IMHO for wmii-3.6 all that is left is fixing the app full screen issues, anyone has any strong disagreement (or new bugs to report?
