Well, all I gotta say is: it's lucky that awesome was called a "tiling window manager" and not a "custom window manager construction kit" when I discovered it or I'd have missed a great soft ;)On Fri, Oct 23, 2009 at 10:28:59PM +0200, "Jérôme M.

Right now it starts in "floating" layout, which is about the worst possible choice (if I wanted a floating wm I wouldn't be using awesome).please see numerous other mail threads/bugs in and about awesome, then read the very informative: http://julien.danjou.info/blog/index.php/post/2009/06/15/I-will-tile-your-face as an explanation for while it is left to float.
but as a possible solution, the function awful.tag() takes up to three arguments: name, screen, layout so by changing this line: tags[s] = awful.tag({ 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 }, s) to something like: tags[s] = awful.tag({ 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 }, s, awful.layout.suit.tile) all of your tags would be given a tiling layout. There are of course, better/fancier ways to specify this on per-tag basis et cetera. This is left to the reader as an exercise.
Thanks, that worked just fine! Jerome -- mailto:jeber...@free.fr http://jeberger.free.fr Jabber: jeber...@jabber.fr
