incnmaster - bakkeby/dusk GitHub Wiki

The incnmaster function increases or decreases the number of clients in the master area.

More precicely it changes the nmaster variable for the current workspace, which is used by most layouts that have more than one client area.

If nmaster is 0 then only the stack area will be shown. This is also true for dual stack layouts such as centered master layouts.

Not all layouts take nmaster into account, for example the monocle or fibonacci layouts.

The default keybindings are to use Super+i to increase nmaster and Super+u to reduce it.

External commands:

duskc run_command incnmaster 1   # increases the number of clients in the master area by one
duskc run_command incnmaster -1  # reduces the number of clients in the master area by one
duskc run_command incnmaster 3   # increases the number of clients in the master area by three
