Using the Arduino IDE with a tiling window manager

Tue, 01 Nov 2016 17:16:59 +0100

The Arduino IDE does not work properly with tiling window managers, because they do some interesting reparenting.

To solve this, add

_JAVA_AWT_WM_NONREPARENTING=1
export _JAVA_AWT_WM_NONREPARENTING

to the start script or your environment.
