minus-square@Drito@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilink3•edit-22 years agoIf I understand what you mean this is a solved problem. As instance in bspwm I just wrote this line in the config then all images opens as a floating window. bspc rule -a Sxiv state=floating I guess many other tiling WM are able to do that.
