Does this support XFCE with wayland too?

Hiya,
This is a very nifty little tool. It works great in conjunction with XFCE. However I have one minor gripe. There's no license in present in the repository. Could you please at one?

Thanks for your great work!!

Thanks for the fix last time, it's working properly now. But however since I use Ulauncher, which originally has no borders, become the opposite after running the script. It may be a feature instead of a bug, but is it possible to disable it in the configuration file?

I am trying to run ctrl+alt or shift+alt as my hotkey modifier. getModifierCode.py doesn't register these key combos, also when I run getModifierCode.py I gett the following error:
X protocol error:
<class 'Xlib.error.BadAccess'>: code = 10, resource_id = 477, sequence_number = 14, major_opcode = 33, minor_opcode = 0

I have searched for the ascii codes for this key combination but not having any luck. Do you know what the decimal number is for key combinations? Also code 64 doesn't work for my SuperL according to ascii in terminal code 64=@.

I have the hotkey modifier set to 18, which is Caps Lock. It works, but I have to constantly check that caps lock is off when I type.

I would like to create this specific setup:

• whenever I launch a new terminal, the terminal should be launched in the upper-left size of my screen, and should not be resized.
• stack a maximum of 3 windows horizontally, and then move to the next column.

I have tried to modify the config file to achieve this but nothing seems to suit my needs. Is there a way I could configure this behaviour?

Hi,

I'm running Arch with XFCE 4.18 on my old laptop and i really like xpytile! Thank you!
But, there is a problem with client side decorated windows (CSD) like GTK 3/4 (e.g. Firefox):

As you can see, the window decoration is server side in tiling mode.

Any ideas how to fix this?

I've changed some keybindings but some keybindings stop the script.

For ex : Super_L + [ and Super_L+]

# increase max number of windows to tile
# 58 "m" 
# 35  bracketright
increaseMaxNumWindows = 35

# decrease max number of windows to tile
# 57 "n"
# 34 "bracketleft"
decreaseMaxNumWindows = 34

The other time when the keybinding stops the program is : when i cycle tilers using Super_L + c
The script stop automatically when it reaches horizontal tiler

I have a xfce4-bar on the left. It's odd that it reserves space, but not on the left. It's on the right instead. This makes windows go under the bar and having space at the right where nothing is there.

xpytile-git r70.279a499-1 here, getModifierCode.py can't grab any key:

X protocol error: <class 'Xlib.error.BadAccess'>: code = 10, resource_id = 1717, sequence_number = 17, major_opcode = 33, minor_opcode = 0

xpytile spams with similiar repeating strings like:

X protocol error: <class 'Xlib.error.BadAccess'>: code = 10, resource_id = 1717, sequence_number = 29, major_opcode = 33, minor_opcode = 0

Right now I use it like this: kill $(pgrep -f "python /usr/bin/xpytile") || $(nohup xpytile > /dev/null 2>&1) &
configured to one workspace doing its auto tilling magic which is great as it is.

Can I send a signal to it somehow (like in bspwm) beacause I am willing to make a functional menu with rofi and myrmidon: https://github.com/moustacheful/myrmidon

tryied shinglify but it is beyond of simply tiling: https://gitlab.com/corthbandt/shinglify-bin/-/tree/latest

Thanks!

Hi, thanks for the great script!

Would you mind adding name: "Ulauncher" to the default ignoreWindows? Ulauncher is an application launcher, which appears as a temporary overlayed input box: https://ulauncher.io/.

I think this would benefit a lot of keyboard oriented XFCE users.
