xRandR: Inconsistent location for spawning clients #71

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
This may just simply have to do with xrandr/xinerama support being
incomplete, but when you spawn a client, it is inconsistent which screen it
decided to pop up on, depending on if there is a client there or not.

If there is a client on the second screen for example and the second screen
is selected, it will pop up there, if there is nothing on the second
screen, the client will run on the first screen

Managed clients open in the selected column, not matter which screen it's on, or
whether it has any clients in it.

when you move the mouse to a different screen, should the focus move to that 
screen?
the only way i can make a client to pop up on the screen not containing the bar 
is by
moving the focus via the keyboard, and also this makes dmenu show up on the 
other
screen, is this intended? 

Also somewhere along there I was trying to understand the behavior a little 
bit, and
I got a segfault when trying to spawn firefox on the other screen

I should clarify what i meant, suppose the screen that draws the bar has a 
couple
clients in it, and I move the mouse over to the other screen, should the 
clients on
the other screen remain selected?

I can reproduce this segfault consistently, I am going to make another report 
about it
