To explain: I started using te config at https://github.com/ierton/awesomerc-ierton/blob/laptop/myrc/keybind.lua and I am adapting it for me and adding comments. It is on github (https://github.com/rkrug/awesomerc-rkrug) but it is not nearly done. One of my next steps is to use shifty (which I really liked, but in my forst attempt caused inconsistent tag behaviour between screens). I will post my progress and hope that the documented config can become a useful resource for others, Cheers, Rainer - -- Rainer M.

We can only do key combinations with modifier keys (Shift, Control, Mod4, Alt....) and one extra key. Since neither 1 nor left are modifiers, this wouldn't work. Yes, implementing such a keybinding would work. How about something like mod+shift+left? Do you already have a keybinding on that? So let's try... The code below is completely untested and was invented on the spot. Hopefully it works. awful.key({ modkey, "Shift" }, "Left", function() awful.tag.viewprev(mouse.screen == 1 and 2 or 1) end), awful.key({ modkey, "Shift" }, "Right", function() awful.tag.viewnext(mouse.screen == 1 and 2 or 1) end), Of course, this obviously doesn't work for three screens.

I use Space2Ctrl program (you can find it on git), which remaps control to space if Space pressed together with another key. However it does not work, if I enable sticky keys using xkbset. Is there any way to set MOD4, Shift and Alt sticky and leave Ctrl to behave as usual? Thanks.

Reasoning: I am working on a script (on screen 2) which produces a graph - now I want to check the graph, but also, from time to time, have to look in the document where I have the raw data, and both are on screen 1. Now I don't want to move my mouse, switch on screen 1, and move my mouse back - so a keyboard shortcut, which executed from whatever active screen, switches to the next tag on screen1, would solve the problem. I am using modkey-right and modkey-left to switch between tags on the active screen - so would it be possible to switch with modkey-1-left on screen 1? Richard Kolkowitch suggested: if mouse.screen == 1 then screen = 2 else screen = 1 end awful.tag.viewnext(screen) to switch on the non-active screen (thanks!) - could I then map awful.tag.viewnext(screen) to modkey-1-left ?

What I did notice with some update a week ago is that my mouse cursor in awesome tends to reset to X's default cursor when I launch applications (either via awesome menu or the run prompt). I know of the good old "xsetroot -cursor_name left_ptr"-fix and I have an according directive in my .xinitrc. This does work as always but as soon as I launch an application the cursor gets reset again. I guess it has something to do with the cursor changing from the normal pointer to the "busy" pointer. I hope someone knows why the mouse cursor behavior changed and what can be done to reach the old behaviour again.

You could use a timer, started within a function that calls awful.mouse.client.move. Then connect it to your function which checks for coordinates and move-resize client, but it should also check whether mouse button is up and stop the timer. A little bit hacky. So in my opinion better way is modifying a "copy" of awful.mouse.client.move to compare coordinates. What about adding awful.button({ }, 1, nil, function(c) ... end) to clientbuttons? Also c:geometry({x=0, y=...}) would be better methinks. I accept border actions would be nice, but why not assign 2 bindings to clients to do just what you want. </pre> Can Altıparmak 2012-05-18T16:17:50 Search the mailing list at Gmane query http://search.gmane.org/?group=$group=gmane.comp.window-managers.awesome
