Hi,
try to create for_window rules that force the mentioned windows to
tiled mode (floating disable), like:
for_window[title="GNU Image*"] floating disable
You can use xprop to help you doing this:
1. Run `xprop|grep WM_CLASS` in a terminal and click the
target window.
2. This would give, for example:
WM_CLASS(STRING) = "inkscape", "Inkscape"
3. Then add a line to your i3 config file:
for_window[instance="^inkscape$" class="^Inkscape$"] floating disable
for_window use command criteria, you can get more details here:

Possibly these apps open any window in "floating mode" (?).
Yup. Explanations:
