This is because thunar apparently just spawns a new window that is from
the same process as the currently running thunar when re-run (you can
test this yourself by running two thunar windows and using pgrep to see
how many processes are running, i got only one). WMII opens all windows
from a process on the same tag, this is intended as a feature, yes.
Actually, it opens all windows that specify the same group in the same tab.
If you want to override it for a given app, just add to /tagules:
/thunar/ -> sel
Wow, i cant believe i missed that one, thanks for the info kris, however, i
cannot get that to work with sel, it works when i add
/App/ -> 2
In case of thunar, this works only if there is no existing instance of
thunar. For example:
1. Add
/Thunar.*/ -> test
to /tagrules.
2. Open thunar, it opens in "test" tag.
3. Go to test tag, and move thunar window to any other tag, say "test:2"
4. Open thunar again. It opens in "test:2" instead of "test"
So the tagrules are honored when creating the first instance of thunar.
But after that, new instances open in the tag that has the last active
instance.
for example, it opens all windows that match the regex in tag 2 but
/App/ -> sel
in my case just acts the same way as it did before, and opens all of the
windows in the same tag for some reason, no matter what is selected
I experience the same behaviour.
