Request: send to back for i3 and other basic window managers #135

Open SimLeek opened 6 years ago

SimLeek commented 6 years ago

When I run this in i3, it displays the desktop above all of the other windows. This is the same as other desktops, but I think this could be easy enough to implement with something like: if i3, then send to back. If it is, then it seems like it could be worth it.

Otherwise, it works perfectly

I also encountered the same problem

Adrideux commented 6 years ago

I also have the same problem on i3

I have the same problem on i3-gaps

paperbenni commented 5 years ago

same problem on dwm

person4268 commented 5 years ago

same here on i3-gaps; any config that I can use to work around in the meantime?

nfrelink commented 5 years ago

Here as well.

bondrewd commented 5 years ago

Same here

camilovietnam commented 4 years ago

Yeah I have this same issue. I really like the animated desktop but I just can't use it with i3

legendofmiracles commented 4 years ago

Same here

@alx365 take a look at #37 for a workaround. This is likely an issue that needs to be fixed on i3wm's side, and not komorebi.

isovector commented 4 years ago

@Ev1lbl0w It's ridiculous to claim that all of i3, dwm, awesome and xmonad all have the same bug here.

rsubtil commented 4 years ago

That's true, but from a coding perspective, komorebi is defining itself as a desktop window, sets itself to below order, and asks to be stickied. As far as the X documentation goes, it looks like it's doing everything right; and also, I use bspwm (another tilling manager, like the above), and it works without any issues.

I will take a better look at this when I've got the time, but like I said, I suspect this might not be an issue with komorebi only.

Any updates?

rsubtil commented 3 years ago

Never got the chance to look it up, and I won't have any from now on.

I recommend opening an issue on i3's repo (or any other affected WM) to figure out if it's a problem with komorebi or the WM; you can ping me there if you want so I can give more details if needed

fbievan commented 3 years ago

This is due to the lack of EWMH compliance in dwm and those other wms just using a wm like https://github.com/bbidulock/adwm. Works fine
