12:11 <wrl> novakane: hey, rivercarro is working great, just wanted to let you know :)

12:11 <wrl> would love pertag ;)

12:17 <novakane> wrl: nice thanks! Yeah I'm still not sure if I want per tag or not so it's not really my priority tbh

12:17 <novakane> but if someone want to make a patch I'll take it :P

12:21 <wrl> having an intermittent bug where sometimes floating windows can't be moved from the upper left corner of the screen

12:21 <wrl> but it's unclear whether that's rivercarro or river itself

12:22 <wrl> and yeah it's not *killing* me to not have pertag, but i'm used to it, so figured i'd complain ;P

12:27 <novakane> hmm it shouldn't really have bugs that rivertile doesn't have, I never saw this bug but I can't say I use a lot of floating views

12:40 <leon-p> wrl: my layout, stacktile, does have the per-tag functionality optinally. It can also replicate rivertiles layout

12:42 <wrl> leon-p: can it do monocle mode?

12:42 <leon-p> wrl: it has something similar

12:43 <leon-p> see the "stack" sublayout in the man page

12:43 <wrl> basically all i want is switching between the standard rivertile layout and monocle mode

12:43 <wrl> i'm a simple man

12:43 <leon-p> yeah, that should be supported

12:43 <leon-p> stacktile has a command to switch to only using the primary sublayout. It can be toggled

12:44 <wrl> oh nice okay

12:44 <leon-p> there is no true monocle mode yet, but give me five minutes and you'll have it

12:44 <wrl> yeah i was looking through the docs and trying to figure out how monocle would fit into the concepts you've got

12:49 <leon-p> wrl: just pushed a patch adding the "full" sublayout

12:49 <wrl> hah!

12:49 <wrl> that was quick ;)

12:50 <leon-p> you want to use `stacktile --per-tag-config --primary-sublayout rows --remainder-sublayout rows --secondary-count 0` to clonse rivertiles layout

12:51 <leon-p> and to switch to place all views in the full layout, you need to use two user commands: "primary_sublayout full" and "all_primary_toggle"

12:51 <leon-p> You can omit the first command if you want the primary sublayout to be "full" constantly

12:52 <wrl> and then how does switching back from that layout to the normal stacking look?

12:52 <leon-p> wrl: "all_primary toggle" again and if you need, switch the primary_sublayout back to "rows"

12:53 <wrl> alright i will check the docs on this

12:53 <wrl> thanks :)

12:53 <leon-p> "all_primary" also suports the options "true" and "false" if you want it to be a bit more specific

12:54 <leon-p> although I personally find toggling more useful

12:58 <leon-p> wrl: feedback is welcome, btw. I want to make that layout useful for as many people as possible (while staying close to the original concept)

13:05 <wrl> leon-p: do you know offhand if there's a clean way to have riverctl map a keypress to multiple commands in sequence?

13:07 <leon-p> wrl: yes, a script

13:13 <wrl> yeah makes sense

13:13 <michal> leon-p: it needs to be stateful, though, right? how would you implement that? like a shell script with a trap?

13:14 <wrl> michal: well, could also be just "all_primary true" rather than toggle

13:14 <wrl> i just have mod-M for monocle mode and mod-S for stacking

13:16 <leon-p> wrl is right

13:16 <michal> wrl: right.

13:16 <michal> I was referring to multiple commands in a sequence

13:16 <leon-p> in the future I probably make stacktile accept multiple commands at once

13:16 <leon-p> anyway, have to go

13:16 <michal> you'd need to know what command was last

13:17 <michal> oh, sorry, I think I misunderstood the question :)

13:18 <michal> I thought you wanted one command per keystroke but toggle between them to implement monocle toggle

13:19 <michal> which I think is an actual functionality in one of the wm's I tried but forgot which one

13:28 <michal> fyi you can spawn this script in your init file: https://0x0.st/-418.sh

13:28 <michal> and then riverctl map normal $mod M spawn 'kill -s USR1 $(pgrep river-monocle)'

13:29 <michal> works like a charm :)

13:50 <snakedye> wrl: if you don't mind additional shilling, my layout generator supports a monocle layout, per tag layouts, change layout on command and the stacktile layout. Albeit it works differently from other layout generators.

13:51 <snakedye> https://gitlab.com/snakedye/kile

14:06 <michal> snakedye: just curious, is per tag layouts an option or does kile only work with per tag layouts and it can't be turned off?

14:10 <snakedye> michal: No it's always per layout although you can create a layout that ignores commands by defining variables in the "outer layout".

14:11 <michal> snakedye: interesting

14:11 <snakedye> When you send a layout, you can set it to be applied on all tags

14:12 <snakedye> Or the focused or a specific one

14:13 <michal> snakedye: ok, that makes sense, thanks for clarifying

14:15 <snakedye> 👍
