I have no idea: I've never used it. Last version of the patch is against 5.7.2 so it is either incredibly stable, or your computer will burst into flames as soon as you apply it...

Please post photos if it is the latter

1. It is working but only for master;
2. If you create new client window while you see all tags at once, it will create new windows using master from tag 1 as master for all tags (please consider that i'm not so good at English).

Since people say that 1 pic is worth 1000 words, i will use one pic to describe my isse (connected to statement #1):

edit:
Just checked and it is creating new clients under master only when master is focused.

2. As far as I can tell, that is the expected behaviour - see the link to the post above about how tags ≠ workspaces...

I read that article before.
As for patch: that is not what i want so maybe i will revert back to default dwm behaviour for now. Maybe there will be a better patch in future

I have updated the systray patch created by kcirick for version 6.0. It is found here

No problem at all, Whats the error? Are you using other patches? Is everything ok in config.h?

The patch was working just fine, I did find something similar before but that one didn´t work, maybe I was just tired.

Now I'm using also a dual-monitor setup and I'm seeing the "missing" border on the second monitor too, so I'm using that old version of this patch who seems to work as indent.

ivoarch · 2012-01-17 12:49:28

Has anyone tried this patch http://lists.suckless.org/dev/1201/10651.html
Works well !

@Beastie
I use the patch with other patches and it works!!

Someone used uselessgap in dwm-6.0
I have problems with gaps in tile mode and bstack?
In grid mode and fibonacii works correct.

Beastie · 2012-01-17 15:24:42

@ivoarch, i tried but i get lots of errors. i'll try again and show the errors.

and btw for uselessgaps i had the same problem, so i use pidgin and grid with nmaster=2 instead

Army · 2012-01-17 15:52:36

Does one of you guys know a patch which makes tags show up in the bar dynamically? I mean, so it only shows those tags, which have at least one application assigned to. That would be great, because most of the time this is just a waste of space in the bar.

Thanks!

Cloudef · 2012-01-17 16:07:02

@Army
https://github.com/Cloudef/dwm-fork/blob/master/dwm.c
Search for text 'autohide' dunno, if there is similar patch for this. It's not that hard to manually merge though.
I haven't used this feature for long time personally though, so I'm not sure if I have accidentally broke it

(it's the same code as the dwm-plus posted below, my stuff is based on it)

@Beastie
Does that mean it works? Or you have problems with the menu patch?

This dwm branch has it.

Army · 2012-01-17 19:28:23

Thanks guys! But seems like this is too compliated for me, especially because those branches are based on older dwm versions. But I'll try, hope I succeed.

LordLandon · 2012-01-17 20:10:17

I've fixed the problem with useless gap - here is my patch. This is my first time in the dwm code, but the problem was tile() recalculating the height of a window after resizing it, and thus placing the next one right bellow.

I'm not sure if this breaks something else, but if it does, it might be better to alter the HEIGHT macro itself.

ivoarch · 2012-01-17 21:00:39

@ LordLandon
Thanks for the new update works for "Tile"
for those who use bstack, need to add the same

void
bstack(Monitor *m) { 
resize(c, m->wx + mx, m->wy, w - (2*c->bw), mh - (2*c->bw), False); 
        - mx += WIDTH(c); 
       + mx += WIDTH(c) + 2 * globalborder;  
 
w = (m->ww - tx) / (n - i);
                       resize(c, m->wx + tx, m->wy + mh, w - (2*c->bw), m->wh - mh - (2*c->bw), False); 
       - tx += WIDTH(c); 
       + tx += WIDTH(c) + 2 * globalborder;

hey all,

i'm working on a patch to show my root window title on all monitors. does this already exist and i've missed it?

anyways, what i have so far cuts the text (adds the ...) on my larger monitor when the smaller monitor is active. i'm having some trouble locating the source of this. can anyone give me any help?

Seems to work, thanks a lot!!! Some minor changes were needed, since I use other patches, but I could apply it anyway, so that should be possible for everyone

GREAT!!

I pushed a bugfix for centred-floating, please test and provide feedback those who use a multi-monitor setup.

Here's my solution for your problem (apply patch by hand):

 static Monitor *dirtomon(int dir);
 static void drawbar(Monitor *m);
 static void drawbars(void);
-static void drawcoloredtext(char *text);
+static void drawcoloredtext(Monitor *m, char *text);
 static void drawsquare(Bool filled, Bool empty, unsigned long col[ColLast]);
 static void drawtext(const char *text, unsigned long col[ColLast], Bool pad);
 static void enternotify(XEvent *e);
...
 			dc.x = x;
 			dc.w = m->ww - x;
 		}
-		drawcoloredtext(stext);
+		drawcoloredtext(m, stext);
 	}
 	else
 		dc.x = m->ww;
...
}
 
 void
-drawcoloredtext(char *text) {
+drawcoloredtext(Monitor *m, char *text) {
 	char *buf = text, *ptr = buf, c = 1;
 	unsigned long *col = dc.colors[0];
 	int i, ox = dc.x;
...
 		c=*ptr;
 		*ptr=0;
 		if(i) {
-			dc.w = selmon->ww - dc.x;
+			dc.w = m->ww - dc.x;
 			drawtext(buf, col, False);
 			dc.x += textnw(buf, i);

kaptenen - Thanks for the feedback.

I like this patch, but it puts windows that requests specific position on screen (e.g, gsimplecal) to center too.
