move current floating window to top of float stack #12

Closed ghost closed 9 years ago

hi,

it would be awesome to be able to move the currently focused floating layer to the top of the floating layer. Right now the top window is the first window floated.

This (along with tracking of order within the floating stack) would be wonderful. In fact, the lack of that single feature is the only thing keeping me from using spectrwm as my primary WM.

Would this[1] do what you're after?

It implements a "raise" command (MOD+r by default), which raises the current window temporarily (that is, without changing the stack order). This also works in the tiled layer: you can raise a tile on top of a floater when needed, but as soon as you cycle focus it will return to the original stacking order).

I find this odd but will accept a PR if it is well written.
