In tiling mode windows are managed in a master and stacking column. The master |
|
|
|
column contains the window which needs most attention at a time, whereas the |
|
|
|
stacking column contains all other windows in a stack. Dialog windows are |
|
|
|
managed floating, however. In floating mode windows can be resized and moved |
|
|
|
freely. |

Windows are grouped by tags. All windows with a specific tag can be viewed at a |

time. But each window may contain more than one tag, which makes it visible in |

several views. |
