What Push Window into Master Area hotkey is supposed to do?
In screenshot I have 2 tiled windows. How can I add chrome window to this list?
I tried to alt tab to chrome then press Meta + Return but that seems to do nothingâŚ
How to add already opened application window to tiled windows list?
Maximize it? If you have it set to tile all. . . they will all tile. If it doesnât you either donât have it setup correctly - check your shortcuts. Or you have it off.
Master window is the big window on the left. They call it master because itâs bigger than the others.
And that is done how, exactly?
Edit1: Hmm now it works, not sure what I did.
I have these ones. Now need figure out how this floating works.
Would be nice if there was some docs about this stuff. Kinda need experiment right now to understand it all.
That is not real documentation. It just says how to install and what are default hotkeys. So if you have never done anything with tiling, you need to experiment. It is not super evident what, for example, Push Window into Master Area does etc etc
For example, I had maximized chrome window I was thinking it is not âin tiling listâ (pressing any Focus hotkey did nothing) but to get it back in âtiling listâ I just needed to unmaximize or restore window. This is how tiling works with maximized window. I had no idea, just found it doing stuff and experimenting.
In real docs these kind of things would be explained.
Well, not every project is not documented to explain every nuke and cranny. Most cover the basics and let people find out by them selfs. Bismuth being a fork of Kronkite you would be able to use Kronkite documentation for the most part.
While youâre experimenting, document your findings and offer them up to the project to help them out. EVERYONE is always looking for help in documentation. Itâs a fantastic way to help out others who also use Linux and bismuth.
If Khronkite has any documentation, itâs not readily advertised â unless I need new glasses.
A basic search for âKhronkite documentationâ finds the git and a r/kde thread asking basic âhow to useâ questions. The answers there donât point to any doc. I donât think there is any.
Itâs a tilling extension. How much documentation is needed to understand an extension itâs not an OS? Even extensions used in the Windows environment donât have good documentation. I thought Linux relied more on the community and finding things out by getting one hand dirty.
If you want to learn about tiling window managers watch this. Then itâs just a matter of learning/assigning the hotkeys for whatever you choose.
(edit: my answer is marked by the forum software as an answer to s4ndm4n because I quoted them, but the first part is actually in answer to KDen )
Thank you kindly, but it seems my comment has been interpreted as âplz halp whatâs a tiling thingy lol???â
That not what I meant. Person A expressed the need for more doc, person B answered, âyou can just use doc Xâ, and, having followed up on doc X, I pointed out that X does not, in fact, seem to exist. Error 404.
That is the full extent of what I meant by my previous post, with no implication as to whether I personally want or need more. On that topicâŚ
Iâd say the equivalent of a succinct --help or man page.
Personally, Iâd just like to see a one-or-two-sentence definition for the main keywords: âMaster areaâ(which is what @Elnath was asking), âendâ of a layout, and the general principle of each layout, like this, for instance.
last edit: anticipating another possible misunderstanding: the above doesnât mean I want somebody to take time out of their day to break them down for me; I can google and experiment by myself. Iâm just saying that, all other things being equal, a little bit of doc saves a lot of time for users, and agreeing with the general sentiment of
