Some Applications Don't Tile Randomly

[landoncrabtree]

Describe the bug There seems to be an issue with some applications getting tiled properly. Sometimes they will tile properly, and other times they just launch like a regular application, ignoring the tiling layout. I believe it seems to be an issue with identifying if the window is floating or not.

Applications: Amethyst, Terminal

To Reproduce Tile applications (ie: Firefox) Open Terminal - Sometimes it will tile, othertimes it will not. Seems to be random.

Expected behavior Application should tile everytime.

I have this issue on my m2 as well. additionally, if I try to click on the amethyst icon in the menu bar, amethyst often doesn't respond for several seconds. if I switch desktops, left or right, I can make the icon on the new desktop respond.

This happens for me with Terminal as well. I notice it randomly throughout the day. Usually around focus switches, sometimes to different tabs within the Terminal window and sometimes when switching to other applications. Amethyst drops (or maybe floats) the Terminal window, then reflows everything else on top.

To get my terminal back, I usually restart Amethyst. This has a side effect of rearranging which windows are where. A minor, but frequent, annoyance.
