xfce4-panel covers fullscreen window #331

Closed jhyeon closed 8 years ago

jhyeon commented 8 years ago

After updating bspwm to commit 0d98547 (from a previous commit a few months old), a fullscreen window (of the mpv player for instance) appears not above xfce4 panels but below them. This was not the case with the previous commit.

Thanks for the tip! Now the fullscreen window appears above the panels. However, I have another issue that I did not have before: the panels are below every window. Is there a way to put the panels below the fullscreen window but above the tiled (and floating) windows?

Doesn't your panel reside in a padding space?

jhyeon commented 8 years ago

One panel does. The other is in the auto-hide/show mode which is difficult to use if the other windows cover it.

You could listen to the _windowstate event and call xdo above|below accordingly.
