Awesome3 - Firefox won't resize[SOLVED]

After upgrading to Awesome 3.2, Firefox always takes up the whole screen regardless of how many windows I open. Every other combination of programs that I've tested works fine; it seems to be just Firefox.

After upgrading I copied over the new default rc.lua to ~/.config/awesome since I only change a few things:

-change default terminal to sakura
-change 'Run:' prompt keybinding
-change honor size hints to false to remove gaps around terminals

Any ideas? Thanks!

Is your firefox always set to "float"?
I have several apps (gedit, ario) always set to float, and toggle does not work on these apps. Don't know if this is the same kind of problem.
My firefox works alright though.

You're right Awesome does display the floating icon in the Firefox title bar but Firefox is not set to float in rc.lua?

EDIT: And I can't toggle Firefox to tile once it opens as floating.

Does setting float to false work?

["firefox"] = false

I remember having that problem, but I've forgotten what I did to solve it and I don't have any entry in my floatapps for firefox.

When I woke up this morning it was working fine. I'm not sure what happened since I didn't reboot my computer or even restart Firefox overnight.

If it happens again I will try explicitly setting float to false and report back.

Ario and Gedit are still floating... Using the default config does not help in my case.

OK, I got the message from the Awesome bug tracker, that this is not a bug.
Press Mod4 + m and you can unset the "maximization". I don't remember maximize those apps though. Didn't know there was such function.
