rioresize - bakkeby/dusk GitHub Wiki

The rioresize function allows the user to "draw" where a window is to be placed / resized to in a similar manner to the Plan 9 windowing system rio.

The feature uses a tool called slop (Select Operation) under the hood to draw the selection. This will have to be compiled and installed separately.

Configuration options:

static const char slopresizestyle[] = "-t 0 -c 0.92,0.85,0.69,0.3"; /* do NOT define -f (format) here */

The slopresizestyle option allow you to use a different slop style when resizing clients. See slop --help for or the man page for more details.

Note that even if -t 0 is passed to slop it still ends up highlighting the window underneath the cursor for a fraction of a second on the first mouse click before you start dragging.

There are no default keybindings for this function.

External command:

$ duskc run_command rioresize  # resize the current window using slop
