Floating Firefox Notification

[companion256]

I'm using i3 Manjaro. Firefox sends notifications and instead of floating window in the top right corner, it creates an entire window.

I'm unable to locate PID, since I believe it's a Firefox subprocess. How can I make the notifications float again?

I may remove the notifications.

took me awhile though it looks like it's a window_role alert

for_window [class="Firefox" window_role="alert"] floating enable

for some reason, I had to use firefox instead of Firefox. So if it doesn't work try that.

hey @companion256 did this just start for you with an update? Because I didn't have this problem till I updated yesterday and I see your post is recent. Also, did you place that in your i3 config?

[companion256]

Yep! I put that in my i3 config. It's a good quick fix because there is less of an annoyance.

However, with multiple notification, they stack over each other.

Are they also drawing focus for you?

[companion256]

I'm unsure actually 🤔 maybe

It is, yes.
