Warning: This is not yet thoroughly tested, so be prepared to
encounter some segfaults. Please enable logging and coredumps,
so we can fix bugs quickly.
Using this command, you can limit the amount of columns or rows for
a stacking container. This allows for better usage of screen estate
when using stacking containers with many clients.
Examples:
i3-msg "stack-limit cols 2"
You will now have a stack window which has two columns of windows.
Commands are 'mark' and 'goto'. Both can be used either directly,
like 'mark a' and 'goto a', or interactively (just 'mark'). For
interactive mode, i3-input must be installed and in your PATH.
Before this fix, you could go upwards and select the screen which
was at the rightmost because it also was the one topmost (if all
screen’s top position is equal).
Please test this! Plug in screens, unplug them, use your video projector,
change resolutions, etc.
To use the assignments, use the following syntax:
workspace <number> [screen <screen>] [name]
Where screen can be one of:
<number> (It is not provided that these numbers stay constant, so use with care)
<x>x<y> (Coordinates where the screen starts, so 1280 will be fine to match the
screen right of the main screen if your main screen is 1280 pixels
width. However, 1281 will not match)
<x>
x<y>
Some examples follow:
workspace 1 screen 0
workspace 1 screen 1
workspace 1 screen 1280x0
workspace 2 screen 1280
workspace 3 screen x0
workspace 3 screen 1 www
workspace 4 screen 0 mail
Use bn (normal), bp (1-px), bb (borderless) as commands to change the
border style of the currently focused window. Feel free to use i3-msg
to do this.
Also update documentation (manpage, userguide).
To make the code easier to read/write when checking if a client is
floating, introduce client_is_floating().
Details which are missing: A command to hide/show all floating clients,
moving/resizing clients with your mouse holding Mod1 (click anywhere
in the client, not just on its borders), resize/move by keyboard, select
next/previous client by keyboard
Killing a dock client and having destroyed workspace 1 before (or the workspace
on which the dock client was started when it was not auto-started) crashed i3 before
this bugfix.
