<div dir="ltr">Thank you for the reply Brandon.<div><br></div><div>Regarding item 1, i really didn't understand much of what you mentioned or how i could test it. Either way when i flip the visible workspaces (focused/non) on my monitors the problem goes away and the avoidstrut works. I googled a bit and i believe "_NET_WORKAREA" has to do with EWMH desktops. The only thing i use is "<a name="14e22097c98e09bb_14e2200db6bfc786_v:ewmhDesktopsLogHook" style="font-size:13px;margin:0px;padding:0px;color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:monospace;line-height:16.1200008392334px">ewmhDesktopsLogHook" because i gives keyboard focus to chromium when switch to it. Didn't like the whole ewmh functionality cuz it would steal my focus.</a></div><div><a name="14e22097c98e09bb_14e2200db6bfc786_v:ewmhDesktopsLogHook" style="font-size:13px;margin:0px;padding:0px;color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:monospace;line-height:16.1200008392334px"><br></a></div><div><a name="14e22097c98e09bb_14e2200db6bfc786_v:ewmhDesktopsLogHook" style="font-size:13px;margin:0px;padding:0px;color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:monospace;line-height:16.1200008392334px">Item 2: </a></div><div><a name="14e22097c98e09bb_14e2200db6bfc786_v:ewmhDesktopsLogHook" style="font-size:13px;margin:0px;padding:0px;color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:monospace;line-height:16.1200008392334px">Unforgettably my ~/.xsession-errors was empty on crash.
