The setmfact function increases or decreases the the size of the master area.
More precisely it changes the mfact (master area factor) variable for the current workspace, which is used by most layouts that have more than one client area.
The minimum value of mfact is 0.05 and the maximum value is 0.95 (i.e. 5% and 95% of the window
area).
The argument passed to the function indicates how much to increase or decrease the master area with and by default these are 0.05 and -0.05 respectively.
The mfact can also be set absolutely with argument values greater than 1.0 (in which case 1.0 is
subtracted from the value used). E.g. passing 1.7 will set mfact as 0.7 (70% of the window area).
Not all layouts take mfact into account.
The default keybindings are to use Super+h to decrease mfact and Super+l to increase it.
