2026-01-26 22:37:45 +0100 <haskellbridge> <geekosaur> ah, good
2026-01-26 22:37:41 +0100 <haskellbridge> <geekosaur> (is this behaving a little better?)
2026-01-26 22:07:54 +0100 <haskellbridge> <nemme> Cool
2026-01-26 22:06:36 +0100 <haskellbridge> <nemme> Hmm...
2026-01-26 22:01:48 +0100 <haskellbridge> <geekosaur (@geekosaur:matrix.org)> (the second "manage" there is in the window manager sense, as EWMH specifies that backing windows and docks are app-managed. the first basically means we keep the window from drifting upward over other windows, and that's it, since EWMH gives everything else to the app to deal with)
2026-01-26 22:00:22 +0100 <haskellbridge> <geekosaur (@geekosaur:matrix.org)> we can manage such windows if something else creates and manages them, though
2026-01-26 22:00:00 +0100 <haskellbridge> <geekosaur (@geekosaur:matrix.org)> and, well, xmonad is minimalist, it doesn't do fancy stuff like that and can't easily be made to
2026-01-26 21:59:26 +0100 <haskellbridge> <geekosaur (@geekosaur:matrix.org)> the only way to get the behavior you're used to is to run a file manager which creates per-workspace backdrop windows on which wallpapers can be loaded. it'll always behave a bit annoyingly when drawn on the root window directly

2026-01-26 19:34:41 +0100 <haskellbridge> <nemme> Is it possible to not flash the wallpaper when switching between two windows in Full mode?

2026-01-26 19:07:39 +0100 <haskellbridge> Don't mind me if I'm asking for the wrong thing. ☮️
2026-01-26 19:07:37 +0100 <haskellbridge> <nemme> The delay can be less of an annoyance if its possible to not switch to the WS until the wallpaper is loaded, as opposed to switch to WS and then load wallpaper.

2026-01-26 18:23:25 +0100 <haskellbridge> <nemme> I just put defWallpaperConf. Probably my laptop is too slow for this (I mean, it takes 30 sec for firefox to open the first time). When I switch to a workspace, I see the previous one's wallpaper for half a sec and only then do I see the current one's wallpaper.

2026-01-26 17:06:49 +0100 <haskellbridge> <geekosaur (@geekosaur:matrix.org)> with xmonad, there's really only one workspace background; you need to use something like https://hackage.haskell.org/package/xmonad-contrib-0.18.1/docs/XMonad-Hooks-WallpaperSetter.html to switch the wallpaper per workspace
