Better window manager android#
There are more than 25 alternatives to Better Window Manager for a variety of platforms, including Mac, Windows, Linux, Android and KDE. I'm sure someone somewhere thought this was a reasonable restriction, but our customers disagree.Ī developer here has spent days searching and experimented trying to find a way to work around this behavior programmatically, or better yet, tell the window manager to stop doing that. Better Window Manager is described as A tiny window management app for the Mac and is a Window Manager in the os & utilities category. Basically, as long as the user makes the change by dragging and resizing the window, the window manager respects it, but an application that programmatically sets it gets overridden. When we attempt to restore a saved layout containing a window that spanned monitors, the window manager reduces its size and repositions at as it sees fit. What we've found is that the window manager is enforcing a policy on windows that are programmatically set and forcing them not to span across divide between two monitors. Our configuration uses a single virtual X display spanning all monitors, and the users can manually position and size windows across the monitors as desired. On Linux, we're having problems restoring windows when a window spans multiple monitors. The application is cross-platform, and on Windows, everything is fine. Some people have heard of tiling window managers such as XMonad, but are intimidated by the arduous setup and configuration process. The application has multiple windows and we support a layout system where our users can save the application layout and restore it later. We're using Red Hat Linux 6.4, and our application is built using Qt.
