I want floating windows to have a title bar and non-floating windows to not have a title bar.

Here's my relevant config:

hide_edge_borders both
new_window pixel
new_float normal 2

However whatever I do, setting new_window affects both floating and non-floating windows.

Is it possible to change this behaviour?

I'm pretty sure this one is fixed in the development version.

There seems to be a slight problem when using 1pixel or pixel without explicit size.

It seems to work, if the size is explicitly set:

new_window pixel 1
new_window normal 2

Nope, still the same with `new_window pixel 1`.

Hmm, are you using the current version, 4.8?

@Adaephon Yes, 4.8 (2014-06-15) on Arch. Here's my full config: https://github.com/axper/config-home/blob/master/.i3/config

Very strange: On my Arch I seem to have the same problem, whereas it seemed to work fine on the Ubuntu machine I used for the previous tests. I'll have to check on the Ubuntu again, but I think, a bug report is in order…
