Thank you for confirming my intuitions, I wasn't entirely sure if it was a hard limitation of the way Windows handled... windows or if it was just buggy software. So I guess this new WM suffers from the same limitations?
This experience actually made me wary of Wayland and other X11 replacements because, as far as I understand, they behave similarly. I could be completely wrong about that though because I still haven't completely figured out how Wayland actually works and every time I looked for infos on this particular topic I ended up more confused than when I started.
- jowsie 7y agoI can confirm PowerToys does need to run as admin for this functionality.
- jhoechtl 7y agoSway is a Wayland only WM and doesn't suffer of any the shortcomings you describe.
- michaelmrose 7y agoEach wayland compositor is like a combination of X and a singular wm wherein the existing Wayland standard provides a framework for implementing rather than each person reinventing their own x alternative.
