Hi David,

Yeah. I've migrated to i3 to give it a try and never changed back, but I
still do care about Fluxbox development because it was my main Window
Manager since a long time ago.

BTW, I've been switching between workspaces through Meta Key + numbers.

Best!

I will certainly let you know if I find out anything.<br>
<br>
I&#39;ve been trying out i3 for a couple of weeks now, and as much as I<br>

There are some things that fluxbox does better, like being able to<br>
bring up a window menu with a keybind or mouse to remember window<br>
positions and properties etc. With i3 all there is is config editing,<br>
and there are no commands to go workspace left/right, so I had to make<br>
a couple of binds with some shells scripts using wmctrl to do that.<br>
But this grouping problem is a show stopper now that I need to tab<br>
windows together.<br>

This is what I have in my apps file:<br>

[app] (name=3DNavigator) (class=3DFirefox) (role=3Dbrowser)<br>
[Workspace]=C2=A0 =C2=A0{1}<br>
[Tab]=C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0{yes}<br>

They go to the right workspace, but they won&#39;t tab.<br>

I have also had problems with tor browser, in that if I try to save<br>

Am I missing something here?<br>

I&#39;m using fluxbox from git clones around 26th Oct. I just did another<b=
