You're trying to control a Firefox instance titled "YouTube." Assuming Flash was involved wasn't much of a stretch. You say you've tried this with Chromium with "greater succcess," which is to say incomplete success. What exactly are you trying to do? How has using Chromium gotten you close to that than using Firefox? It's always wise to explain what your end-goal is when asking someone for what you believe will be the answer. -- "A common mistake that people make when trying to design something completely foolproof is to underestimate the ingenuity of complete fools." - Douglas Adams
Re: [i3] i3 does not swallow title correctly
Hi, you should really look at the i3 logs, as often windows change their titles and such *after* they are mapped and afaik firefox is a prime example of this. So the state of the window when you run Xprop is really no indication as to what you should put in your i3 config (as this is afaik applied during mapping, as this is the only sane thing to do). Best, Merovius PS: In the future, could you pretty please attach large logs as files, instead of pasting them inline?
