Description Christoph Resch 2008-02-06 23:27:50 UTC

Hi,

since i use compiz-fusion i get really bored every time i start Yast for installing software because the popup-windows keep following me on every viewport 

i  already use some settings for fixed veiwports on title="YaST2*"-windows but the popups have no unique identifier for the compiz-plugin (>position)

it would be great if you could name all the popups that are all qt-classed but not unique in any title or class 

so just naming all those popups "YaST2*$WHATEVER" would work great with my compiz-settings 

please implement this feature :-) 

thanks - great tool

Hi .. 

I humbly disagree on closing this issue :-) 

first i was not reporting a bug but an enhancement- if you think it is a bug then that would NOT refer to https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=246934 .. its related - but not a DUP!

This is not about some major recoding of yast , but simply telling all qt-popup-windows to have an identifier with a "YaST2"-Prefix .. IMHO this is a miniman change .. that would IMO especially make workfeeling with compiz more userfriendly - there i can choose a window to be focus or not - as i like - but in any case the individual identifier of a windows is needed - and IMHO for a system app there shouldnt windows without a name ;-) 

AND : ITS AN ENHANCEMENT-REQUEST :-) - so please dont close it at this moment :-)

See http://wiki.compiz-fusion.org/WindowMatching#Winrules

and

http://wiki.compiz-fusion.org/Plugins/Put

BTW, new yast 1-click and sw_single modules will not have many pop ups anymore.

Comment 5 Stefan Hundhammer 2008-03-03 10:58:03 UTC

Maybe we can do some nice trick with the WM_CLASS property of those windows. Simply prefixing them all with "YaST2" might be counterproductive for other window managers: E.g., KDE's kwin/kicker displays the window title literally in the task list. Prefixing them all with "YaST2" would clutter that display with information that is of little use there.

Does this apply to the GTK UI?
