Similarly, pidgin chat window and > userlist get confused etc which may be what's happening with my "fill for > tiling" issue. if the rememebred windows are not uniquely identifiable then its not possible to remember them correctly. as such they much set properties (name, class, role etc.) for this to be possible and these must be DIFFERENT per window. -- ------------- Codito, ergo sum - "I code, therefore I am" -------------- The Rasterman (Carsten Haitzler) [email protected] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
