Closed Morlinnn closed 4 weeks ago

Problem description

Is it possible to add an option to allow other application's floating window(draw over other apps) displays above termux-x11 app.

When termux-x11 shows desktop environment, other application's PiP can be successfully displayed above it, but floating window not.

What steps will reproduce the bug?

It's not a bug.

All floating windows are hidden when entering termux-x11.

What is the expected behavior?

No response

There are different ways to create floating windows. If your device has PopView option, there are no limits both Termux and X11 can be placed in their own windows or one of the side apps. There is float for Termux, which works as a plugin to Termux on all devices. I took a picture of my SM-P610, where 1: Chrome app with this Issue in PopView, 2 X11 (Fullscreen), 3: Float and 4: Termux can be seen in PopView.

image Keyboard is unique for all apps, but EK-KB is different and PopView is adapted to the KB toggle but is not included in Float plugin.

Termux:X11 does not hide any floating windows and does not block them. Seems to be your device's quirk.
