placedir - bakkeby/dusk GitHub Wiki

The placedir function allows clients to swap places in a directional manner by calculating the best suitable candidate based on the position and size of all visible windows.

This may be desirable for grid layouts or the fibonacci spiral / dwindle layouts rather than simply move clients up and down the stack.

• move a client in any direction (up, down, left, right)
• wraps around within the same monitor (as opposed to moving a window to an adjacent monitor)
• restricted to tiled windows only

External commands:

duskc run_command placedir 0  # Left
duskc run_command placedir 1  # Right
duskc run_command placedir 2  # Up
duskc run_command placedir 3  # Down
