Hello Hartwig,

glad to hear, usually people are attracted by ruby and the time will show if they can live with the 'oddities' of subtle. :)

I decided to remove dynamic views, because it's a huge overhead to check this and no one in the channel really liked it. There was a note in the news about this change: http://subforge.org/news/27

subtle is really strict about tagging, window placement depends on it and without scripting it's not possible to place windows on current window. You can make this window sticky, if you want it to be on the current view, but this window will be visible on all terms. The scripting way is to add a tag for each view and assign the current view name as tag to a newly created window. This will move windows to the current view, could be done like this: (haven't tested it)

# Create tags for each view
on :start do
  views = Subtlext::View.all.map { |v| v.name }
  tags  = Subtlext::Tag.all.map { |t| t.name }

  views.each do |v|
    unless(tags.include?(v))
      t = Subtlext::Tag.new(v)
      t.save
    end
  end
end

# Assign tags to new clients
on :client_create do |c|
  # Assign only clients with default tag
  if(["default"] == c.tags)
    c.tag(Subtlext::View.current.name)
  end
end

Hm, can you show me your config? Would be easier for me to reproduce this behaviour.

Hi,
thanks for the quick reply. I will check the snippet over the weekend.

Hm, I saw that but I didn't know that it was called dynamic views. Thanks.

My config is in the attachment.

By then.

Hi,
I tried the snippet, also I have made a few modifications (and put some tracing in there), but I cant add a Tag to a client.

 on :client_create do |c|
   # Assign only clients with default tag
   File.open("subtle.log","w+") do |file|
     if(c.tags.any?{|t| t.name == "tmp-console"})
       file.puts "I am in here" 
       file.puts "CurrentView: #{Subtlext::View.current.name}" 
       c.tag(Subtlext::View.current.name)
       c.save
       file.puts c.has_tag?("tmp-console")
       file.puts c.has_tag?(Subtlext::View.current.name)      
       file.puts c.tags.inspect
     end
   end
 end

I have a Grab which starts an terminal with the name tmp-console. The client has the right tag. But when the hook gets executed the name of the current view will not be added as a tag. So the console shows up on my default view. If I an a view for the console it will be displayed there. So that part is working. It seams I am using the c.tag wrong or I am missing something.

Ps.: How do get the highlighting? I tried code.

Uhm do you use the the start hook too? You can only add tags that exist and you don't need to call #save on changes like that. Did you check if the tag you want to add exists with subtler -tl?

The code tag is right, but you need to supply a language as class parameter like this:

<pre><code class="ruby">puts "test"</code></pre>

Btw: This stuff would be easier via IRC. (#subtle / freenode)
