Termite not tiling

[py9mrg]

Hello,

First of all, thanks for this great extension. I've just installed and love it. Have a couple of bugs to report though so will do them separately. First is:

Termite is not working at all. When it opens it just floats above everything and no way to get it tiling.

That's interesting, termite is my go to terminal. Did you log out and back in after you installed the extension?

[py9mrg]

Yeah I thought it was weird as well given you reference it in the read me. I did log out and in again. Although, thinking about it, I had done some updates without restarting. On my phone now so will have a go again tomorrow and let you know if it’s still happening.

[rustysec]

Definitely let me know, thanks for the report.

Also are you on x11 or wayland?

I have the same issue. Using Wayland. All other terminals (gnome-terminal, alacritty, kitty) tile fine.

It used to work fine. I updated to the latest version this morning, and it's not tiling anymore. I'll try to find the commit that introduced this behavior.

Also, thanks for this extension. I love it.

That's the commit: https://github.com/rustysec/tidalwm/commit/96474fb8d9e64bdf0faffeb630ee2f85a80a9e09

Awesome work, this is a little confusing. When I launch termite it is tiling in fine, and the window title is not empty. What distro is everyone on?

[nodefourtytwo]

Arch

[rustysec]

What shells are you using? bash?

[nodefourtytwo]

zsh

The only option I see in termite conf that could matter is: dynamic_title = true

[rustysec]

I cannot figure out how to repro the problem but testing with the provided patch looks good.

Can confirm the patch fixes this for me.
