Can't click inside peek window

[ghost]

Got peek working perfectly within i3wm

apart fronm the fact I can't click inside the peek window, whenver I click inside it, it will go to resize itself

How do I fix this?

This is a known issue of i3. Please see #52 and i3/i3#2742 . A workaround is to put the peek window behind other windows (which is of course not really how it is intended to work, but it works).

Actually there has been some work on this on the i3 side, it might work with i3 4.16.1, see i3/i3#3514 . But I haven't personally tested this.

@phw I can confirm that indeed peek now works with i3 without having to make all windows floating! \o/

@kgilden does it work for you with version 4.16.1? I'm seeing the same issue as before.

@benjaminwood I'm running v1.3.1 of peek and v4.17 (04.08.2019) of i3wm.

Ah, okay. Thanks!
