Cycling between maximized windows in Tile mode #86

Open Kwelity opened 4 years ago

Kwelity commented 4 years ago

Symptom When using tile mode and cycling through windows, the active maximized window won't "go behind". The focus is actually changed to the next window, but the maximized one stay in front.

How to Reproduce

  1. Start Tile mode with 2 windows or more 2 . Maximize first window and try to change window
  2. The window bellow is still the first maximized one

Expected behavior Ideally I would like to have the maximized window unmaximized, then swap to the next one and maximize (this is the behavior in kwin-tiling which I'm coming from) As a workaround I've been trying to use Monocle mode in place of maximizing, this works but I lose the animations.

Environment

Notes I've just made the change from kwin-tiling but I have to say that I'm really impress by the features of this script, thanks a lot !

PS: If I'm not being clear I can try and make a gif of my expected behavior.

I just changed from kwin-tiling and I'm having the same issue, the monocle workaround sort of works with a downside, the current window in monocle is not the one that was focused in the previous layout.
