New issue 399 by adam.vany: Bringing focus to a floating window when in
monocle layout can cause the main window to switch
http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=399
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Open 1 window (we will call F) and Mod+Mouse1 to make floating
2. Open 1 more windows (called A)
3. Keep focus on window A and open another window (called B)
4. Mod+Space until in monocle layout. Window B should be visible with
window F floating on top
5. Move the mouse onto window F to give it focus
What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Expected: Giving focus to a floating window doesn't change the order/layout
of non-floating windows. Window B should remain visible when window F
receive focus
Actual: Window B is replace with Window A.
If you use Mod+j or Mod+k to bring window B back again, as soon as you move
the mouse on to window F, Window B is replace with window A again
What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
