| 2022-11-25 20:18:45 | <Guest62> | Hello is anyone around? |
| 2022-11-25 20:19:20 | <geekosaur> | yes |
| 2022-11-25 20:20:37 | <Guest62> | Hey I'm having a problem when I changed my config according to the newest tutorial. |
| 2022-11-25 20:21:15 | <Guest62> | If I set my layout to "full" the xmobar panel is not being hidden. |
| 2022-11-25 20:21:42 | <Guest62> | I tried following this https://github.com/xmonad/xmonad/blob/master/TUTORIAL.md |
| 2022-11-25 20:22:20 | <geekosaur> | the Full layout doesn't by itself hide panels |
| 2022-11-25 20:22:35 | <Guest62> | Ooof, |
| 2022-11-25 20:22:40 | <geekosaur> | if you want that then you need to play games with avoidStruts |
| 2022-11-25 20:23:01 | <geekosaur> | or perhaps you want actual fullscreen, which is not what Full is |
| 2022-11-25 20:23:10 | <Guest62> | Yea, already added on to the myLayout section. |
| 2022-11-25 20:24:01 | <geekosaur> | not enough just to havge it, you need to use it specially. see https://github.com/geekosaur/xmonad.hs/blob/skkukuk/xmonad.hs#L144-L145 |
| 2022-11-25 20:25:02 | <geekosaur> | avoidStrutsOn [] means struts default disabled there |
| 2022-11-25 20:26:16 | <geekosaur> | if you want this as part of a layout rotation with ||| ten you do something like: avoidStruts (layout1 ||| layout2 ||| whatever) ||| avoidStrutsOn [] Full |
| 2022-11-25 20:26:31 | <Guest62> | Previously before I started to use the XMonadLog whenever I change my layout to "full" actual wholescreen is used by the window. |
| 2022-11-25 20:26:40 | <Guest62> | I used it like this. |
| 2022-11-25 20:26:42 | <Guest62> | avoidStruts (tiled ||| column) ||| Full |
| 2022-11-25 20:26:42 | <geekosaur> | (or omit the avoidStrutsOn [] part; I have that so I can toggle them on if I want) |
| 2022-11-25 20:27:00 | <geekosaur> | that should work fine, I'd think |
| 2022-11-25 20:27:23 | <geekosaur> | just don't have another avoidStruts above it because that will take precedence |
| 2022-11-25 20:28:18 | <Guest62> | Uhm, above it I have only smartborders and spacingraw. |
| 2022-11-25 20:29:17 | <geekosaur> | hm, that's not guaranteed to work right, struts need to be outside of/above spacing |
| 2022-11-25 20:30:43 | <geekosaur> | but you'd want Full to be outside of spacing for that to be fullscreen anyway |
| 2022-11-25 20:30:54 | <geekosaur> | your layoutHook would end up somewhat more complex |
| 2022-11-25 20:31:33 | <geekosaur> | (avoidStruts $ spacingRaw … $ tiled ||| column) ||| Full |
| 2022-11-25 20:32:03 | <Guest62> | Interesting. |
| 2022-11-25 20:32:17 | <Guest62> | I will try your suggestion. |
| 2022-11-25 20:34:19 | <Guest62> | No dice. xmobar is still not being hidden. |
| 2022-11-25 20:34:27 | <geekosaur> | if spacingRaw includes edge spacing then the status bar will again be visible, since we never actually hide it, we only allow it to be overlapped |
| 2022-11-25 20:35:01 | <geekosaur> | there's a setting for xmobar for actual hiding iirc but I'm not an xmobar user so I can't tell you much about it |
| 2022-11-25 20:35:36 | <Guest62> | What do you use if I may ask? |
| 2022-11-25 20:35:56 | <geekosaur> | I run xmonad as window manager for MATE so I use mate-panel and xmonad-log-applet |
| 2022-11-25 20:36:20 | <geekosaur> | which means I have half of hackage as dependencies for my xmonad.hs because xmonad-log-applet uses dbus 🙂 |
| 2022-11-25 20:38:52 | <Guest62> | Ooof sounds more complicated than what I can handle. :') |
| 2022-11-25 20:40:02 | <geekosaur> | well, you can do quite a lot with just EWMH properties. I wanted some extra stuff so I have a very customized DynamicLog setup |
| 2022-11-25 20:42:06 | <Guest62> | I thought DynamicLog is frozen? |
| 2022-11-25 20:42:33 | <geekosaur> | DynamicLog is still the underpinning for logging |
| 2022-11-25 20:42:50 | <geekosaur> | so you can still use it if you're doing a custom setup like I am |
| 2022-11-25 20:43:28 | × | gknux quits (~gknux@user/galaxy-knuckles/x-3015990) (Ping timeout: 268 seconds) |
| 2022-11-25 20:43:53 | <geekosaur> | X.H.DynamicLog now just reexports X.H.StatusBar.PP, but the low level logging function is still dynamicLogWithPP |
| 2022-11-25 20:45:49 | <geekosaur> | and I have to use it directly because there's no way to use the StatusBar stuff to initialize dbus and associate the resulting handle with the PP |
| 2022-11-25 20:46:21 | <geekosaur> | and I'm not sure we want one given all the deps dbus has 🙂 |
| 2022-11-25 20:47:12 | <Guest62> | If I comment out the line with easySB ... in the main section the full layout works :') |
| 2022-11-25 20:47:33 | <geekosaur> | that's because xmobar is no longer running 🙂 |
| 2022-11-25 20:47:43 | <geekosaur> | easySB is what launches it |
| 2022-11-25 20:50:09 | <Guest62> | If you don't mind, can you share your dotfiles? |
| 2022-11-25 20:50:42 | <geekosaur> | I pointed to the main one earlier |
| 2022-11-25 20:51:03 | <geekosaur> | https://github.com/geekosaur/xmonad.hs/blob/skkukuk/xmonad.hs |
| 2022-11-25 20:51:43 | <geekosaur> | there's some other ones in the same repo and branch; since I have that dbus dependency I use cabal to build my setup |
| 2022-11-25 20:52:00 | <geekosaur> | (stack would work as well but I don't like stack) |
| 2022-11-25 20:56:47 | <Guest62> | Your config looks so different. |
| 2022-11-25 20:58:21 | <geekosaur> | yes, I format it a lot differently than most folks |
| 2022-11-25 20:58:33 | <geekosaur> | plus it predates the tutorial by some 15 years 🙂 |
| 2022-11-25 20:59:01 | <Guest62> | Can you take a look at mine? Maybe there is more that I am missing? |
| 2022-11-25 20:59:03 | <Guest62> | https://github.com/Meeekow/arch/blob/main/dotfiles/xmonad.hs |
| 2022-11-25 20:59:15 | <Guest62> | Holy shit. 15 years? |
| 2022-11-25 20:59:47 | <Guest62> | I haven't even got 1 year using xmonad. |
| 2022-11-25 21:00:23 | <AskYourself[m]> | Is there a good example of how to set up Xmonad on NixOS? I still have my config from Arch, but I'm struggling to get things working. In the greeter screen I can see Xmonad is an option, now that I've added windowManager.xmonad.enable = true;, but I can't figure out how to actually make it use my Xmonad config. |

| 2022-11-25 21:16:11 | <geekosaur> | Guest62, looks to me like you still have spacingRaw before your other layout stuff (including avoidStruts, which makes it malfunction), and it adds a space of 10 on the bottom so that allows xmobar to be visible |
| 2022-11-25 21:17:17 | <geekosaur> | AskYourself[m], I'm sorry but I don't know NixOS. I think you have to watch out for home-manager though, it may need to be configured to use a custom xmonad.hs instead of one it builds? but you need a NixOS user to confirm that |
| 2022-11-25 21:17:19 | <Guest62> | I'll try to rewrite it. Thank you so much! |
| 2022-11-25 21:17:46 | <geekosaur> | [25 20:31:33] <geekosaur> (avoidStruts $ spacingRaw … $ tiled ||| column) ||| Full |
| 2022-11-25 21:18:23 | <geekosaur> | this way (a) avoidStruts is in the right place relative to spacing; (b) both avoidStruts and spacing apply only to the non-Full layouts |
| 2022-11-25 21:18:35 | <AskYourself[m]> | geekosaur: Dang ok. Thanks anyway. I appreciate the reply. |
| 2022-11-25 21:23:34 | <geekosaur> | Guest62, note that Full doesn't override avoidStruts *or* spacingRaw, it uses the space left after both are applied |
| 2022-11-25 21:24:04 | <geekosaur> | which is why you need to arrange your layoutHook to not apply either if you want Full to actually use the full screen |
| 2022-11-25 21:25:26 | <geekosaur> | this is a general rule for layouts; the screen rectangle is passed in, then layout modifiers make modifications and pass on the resulting rectangle to other layouts |
| 2022-11-25 21:26:24 | <Guest62> | Still no go. I removed the smartBorders and spacingRaw and wrote it like this for testing but xmobar is still showing when full screen layout is selected. |
| 2022-11-25 21:26:25 | <Guest62> | myLayout = (avoidStruts $ tiled ||| column) ||| Full |
| 2022-11-25 21:26:40 | <geekosaur> | is a window open? |
| 2022-11-25 21:26:47 | <Guest62> | Yes. |
| 2022-11-25 21:26:59 | <Guest62> | Should I close everything? |
| 2022-11-25 21:27:02 | <geekosaur> | also you may need to configure xmobar to lowerOnStart |
| 2022-11-25 21:27:22 | <geekosaur> | no, just making sure because it would be visible if nothing else were open |
| 2022-11-25 21:27:49 | <geekosaur> | I think xmobar needs to be configured with lowerOnStart = True; overrideRedirect = False |
