Hmm, I have put wmname LG3D in .xsession before anything else, running wmname in a terminal yields LG3D. Still, there is this other issue now: I start netbeans from a terminal -- everything works well. I switch tags and it's all nice and good, netbeans still has focus. I start netbeans from dmenu

Thanks for the pointers. I have another very weird issue now: I open a terminal, I set wmname LG3D, I type netbeans, it starts. Switching the tags in DWM maintains focus (yupee!!). So, I decided to make up my own script to start netbeans that just does wmname LG3D && netbeans and when I run it fr
