Is there an option to stay permanently in floating mode, and allow manual placement? I'm stuck on AwesomeWM using just floating windows with easy keybindings for moving them around/resizing, etc. and am looking to jump from X11 to Wayland
- klooney 11mo agoWhy use Awesome with floating windows?
- KetoManx64 11mo agoBecause it makes no sense to do tiling on a 12" screen, especially when you have keyboard shortcuts to activate/start applications
- michaelmrose 11mo agoI prefer it still because it makes sense for every window to be maximized at startup. Also one layout that still makes sense is 1 window taking up 100% of the horizontal space and 95% of the vertical save for a small strip for a terminal.
- KetoManx64 11mo agoI have - Meta + Z: Activate/iterate through terminal windows - Meta + W: Activate/iterate through browser windows And when on a laptop I maybe do a split view 2-3 times a day for a short term. 95% of the time it's full sized windows which I switch between using keyboard shortcuts.
- tetris11 11mo agoSame, same, and same. I also just like the predictability of placing a window in a location and then the next time it spawns in the exact same place I last left it
