[SOLVED]dwm - back into tiling?

Draucia · 2011-08-23 16:33:17

If I accidentally move or resize a window while dwm is in tiling mode, how can I get that window to tile with other programs without opening/closing it. For example, if open chromium, resize or move it a little while it is in tiling mode, and open another chromium window, I can't get the first chromium to tile with the second. Is this possible? Thanks

Modkey + Shift + space => togglefloating.

On my dwm Alt+ middle mouse button toggles the layout.

Thanks guys. I didn't know a window can be tiled and another can be in floating.

I know this is a few months old, but I felt obligated to say thank you. I've been using dwm for a few days now (moved over from awesome), and this was one thing I couldn't get figured out. Thanks!
