I've just tested your hack and it worked, but not very well.<br>When I placed a floating window on a tabbed workspace, changed the focus from floating and tiled alternately, it worked as expected.<br>But when I closed the floating window, the tiled windows just switched as before, which is not a big problem.<br>
The real problem happened when I tried to float a tiled window, xmonad got crazy.<br>xmonad process got a 100% usage on a core and the 'screen' were not updated anymore, only the later window had the focus. No way to change the focus or do anything.<br>
Hopefully this window I tried to float were a terminal and was able to kill xmonad and re-run it without kill X or logging ssh.<br>(xmonad --restart didn't worked)<br><br>Anyway, this switching focus problem is really annoying.<br>
I'm willing to test anymore hacks you build :P<br><br clear="all">Henrique G. Abreu<br>

</div>OK, attached is a hack from my xmonad.hs<br>
<br>
The idea is very dumb: I essentially intercept runLayout and memorize<br>
last focused window w from passed Stack such that w ==<br>
current->workspace->stack->focus ,i.e. if a window actually having<br>
focus is the one focused in Stack. Then as soon as focused window is<br>
floating I change Stack's focus (back) to w.<br>
<br>
Seems to work for me: tabbed no longer switches tabs by itself when<br>
there're floating windows around.<br>
