Are you able to still watch them properly by removing any of those two elements? Or do you need both of them to do so?

I need both (or all three of them, I already had the fullscreen for the layout set too).

Wait, three? What three? Are you maybe talking about these three?:

Code:

fullscreenManageHook
myManageHook
manageHook gnomeConfig

'cause I'm talking about these 2:

Code:

fullscreenManageHook
handleEventHook = fullscreenEventHook

I never had the third one in my code. Later tonight I'll get my hands on XMonad and try switching between this options a bit to find the solution to properly watch YT videos in widescreen and to be able to switch workspaces with a click.

Edit: the third one should be in layoutHook, shouldn't it? Where I have avoidstruts someLayout it should be avoidStruts fullscreenFull someLayout, right?

[Deque]

Yes, it has to be in the layoutHook

You need to use brackets.
The function fullscreenFull (or avoidStruts) takes one argument. If you do

Code:

fullscreenFull avoidStruts myLayoutMain

You apply two arguments to the function fullscreenFull.

Instead you have to do:

Code:

fullscreenFull (avoidStruts myLayoutMain)

That means you pass one argument, which is the result of the operation (avoidStruts myLayoutMain)

I will probably switch to xmonad only (adding xmobar or dzen for some status bars). I don't really need Gnome. I don't really need the panels and there are too many little problems with Gnome which I never had with xmonad alone.

I'll later try with that code.

Could you mention some of the problems you're talking about (I've noticed a few too, though I can't recall now)?

However, with XMonad + Gnome I can use Nautilus.

[Deque]

You can use Nautilus without Gnome.

Problems: Some shortcuts don't work, like Q+Mod+Shift to log out.
The gnome panels don't show me the names of my workspaces and I don't know which workspace is still in use, so in order to close all programs I have to manually switch through all of them which is annoying.
The gnome panels take too much space. I already made them as small as possible and removed the bottom panel -- still.
I get pop up messages I don't want to get (like update notification).

And the most important thing: I just don't need Gnome.

I have managed to create a custom xsession with xmonad now. Will post more about this later.

I know Q+Mod+Shift is not working, I didn't notice it was because I was using it with Gnome, though. I usually use "sudo pkill -u noize" to log out from Terminal, but with Gnome I can do it by the top right corner's menu too.

Update notifications are actually very annoying, that's true.

Yeah, didn't notice this was caused by Gnome, basing on this, then, I think I'll leave that too.

Waiting to see about the xsession.

In this part I don't get what you're talking about.
