heh, glad you feel better now.

though i don't use it. i have this personal thing maybe, i also use gimp in multi window mode. i need to see some of my desktop, i need to see it is empty.

that's also why i don't use tiling wms. i need to see the background.

i like when the windows aren't glued together, not imprisoned. have freedom to move.

something like that.

also i think everything should be modular. even window interfaces. and we have lack of it. (:

@norayr I understand that. Though if I could get all the laz windows to be on top when switching apps, I'd have stuck with it.

i also use insane amount of workspaces. about 15 for pidgin chat windows. again, multi window mode. (: so when i run lazarus i run it on a separate workspace. when i program just with fpc, i use 2-4 terminals usually. in one i write, in other i build, other two, if i have other pascal files opened. but that's me, everybody has the way that works for them.

This is a lot easier to use with a tiling window manager. Thanks for pointing it out!

no problem!

So I updated Lazarus to 3.4 and it reverted back to the standard multi-window version.

The solution was to rebuild it by Tools -> Build Lazarus... menu item.

oh, i didn't know 3.4 is out. thank you for mentioning it.

I finally discovered Single Window mode for Lazarus and I like it quite a bit more.
