Arduino IDE text area problems in Xmonad

I've been trying to use the Arduino IDE in Xmonad with no success. I can connect to be arduino board, compile and upload files. But I cannot edit any files in the IDE once I take focus off that window. I've tried running   _JAVA_AWT_WM_NONREPARENTING=1; export _JAVA_AWT_WM_NONREPARENTING, in the terminal, and in my xmonad.hs I have, startupHook= setWMName "LG3D". But it doesn't solve the problem. Does anybody know how I can solve this problem?

Re: Arduino IDE text area problems in Xmonad

Hi,
I'm using i3 and I had the same problem. Setting the wmname to 'LG3D' with the wmname utility as described here solved it for me:

wmname is in community.
