.SH NAME
|
|
PolytreeWM \- Polytree tiling window manager
|
|
.SH SYNOPSIS
|
|
.B polytreewm
|
|
.RB [ \-v ]
|
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
PolytreeWM is a tiling window manager for X. It manages windows in monocle,
|
|
floating and tiled layouts. Either layout can be applied dynamically, optimising
|
|
the environment for the application in use and the task performed.
|
|
.P
|
|
In tiled layouts windows are managed in a master and stacking area. The master
|
|
area on the left contains one window by default, and the stacking area on the
|
|
right contains all other windows. The number of master area windows can be
|
|
adjusted from zero to an arbitrary number. In monocle layout all windows are
|
|
maximised to the screen size. In floating layout windows can be resized and
|
|
moved freely. Dialog windows are always managed floating, regardless of the
|
|
layout applied.
|
|
.P
|
|
PolytreeWM draws a small border around windows to indicate the focus state.

.SH ISSUES
|
|
Java applications which use the XToolkit/XAWT backend may draw grey windows
|
|
only. The XToolkit/XAWT backend breaks ICCCM-compliance in recent JDK 1.5 and early
|
|
JDK 1.6 versions, because it assumes a reparenting window manager. Possible workarounds
|
|
are using JDK 1.4 (which doesn't contain the XToolkit/XAWT backend) or setting the
|
|
environment variable
|
|
.BR AWT_TOOLKIT=MToolkit
|
|
(to use the older Motif backend instead) or running
|
|
.B xprop -root -f _NET_WM_NAME 32a -set _NET_WM_NAME LG3D
|
|
or
|
|
.B wmname LG3D
|
|
(to pretend that a non-reparenting window manager is running that the
|
|
XToolkit/XAWT backend can recognize) or when using OpenJDK setting the environment variable
|
|
.BR _JAVA_AWT_WM_NONREPARENTING=1 .
