always-on-top option?

Open OneOfOne opened this issue 7 years ago • 3 comments

Is there any way to add that? I'd like certain windows to start always on top

This should be possible. You can try it with looking glas:

  1. Focus the window you want to stay on top
  2. hit Alt+F2 and type 'lg'
  3. write: global.display.focus_window.make_above()

Is this the "always-on-top" behaviour you mean? And if so, do want to set this inside the "Applications" menu. Just checked the Gnome settings, is there a keyboard binding for "always-on-top"?

set the flag to false: global.display.focus_window.unmake_above()

global.display.focus_window.make_above() is exactly what I need, and an added bonus if you can disable the border of the window too (or if you know how).
