Floating the android emaulator in XMonad
Floating the android emulator isn’t as straight forward as it is floating other apps.
Android emulator a bit different in the sense that it doesn’t have a WM_CLASS
property. Instead you need to get the _NET_WM_NAME
.
To float the android emulator add the following into your manageHooks.
= composeAll
myManageHook ....
[ "_NET_WM_NAME" =? "Emulator" --> doFloat
, stringProperty ]
To get the classname/title or in this case the _NET_WM_NAME value you have use xprop.
Running xprop
in the terminal will change the mouse pointer into a cross symbol. Click on the window/application for which you wanat to print the details and it will display the X property for the window you clicked on.
