Hi, I have good news for those who use a tilling system. I have been working these month on a new system for Fluid tile with the aim of making it easier to maintain and more reliable when moving your windows

During the rewrite, I had to discard some user options that increased the possibility of a error. These options did not add any real value, and I preferred to prioritize reliability of the script

Features

Shortcuts

• Fluid tile | Toggle window to blocklist: Disables the window that is active or has focus so that it does not interact with Fluid tile. If the application name was already included in the block list in the user configuration, the list will take precedence over this shortcut.

  • Sequence: Meta+F

• Fluid tile | Change tile layout: Change the layout of the tiles and rearrange the windows

  • Sequence: Meta+Alt+F

You can change them in the system settings https://codeberg.org/Serroda/fluid-tile/wiki/Shortcuts

Breaking changes

• WindowExtendTileChangedDelay now by default is 300, change in your user settings with this value
  • More info: https://codeberg.org/Serroda/fluid-tile/wiki/Animations

Now, windows will always expand when possible, the UI cannot be disabled, and whenever you move a window to a tile that already has windows, they will always be swapped

These variables will stop working:

• WindowsOrderMove
• WindowsExtendOpen
• WindowsExtendClose
• WindowsExtendMove
• WindowsExtendMinimize
• WindowsExtendResize
• UIEnable

I recommend you take a look at the wiki where it will clarify your doubts https://codeberg.org/Serroda/fluid-tile/wiki

One more thing, this time the news isn't so good

Since my laptop keyboard broke (for whatever reason, neovim doesn't work well without a keyboard /s), I don't have the money to repair it right now, and I have to study for my firefighter exams, there will be fewer updates to the script in the coming months

I encourage you to try it out and let me know what you think. If you find any errors, you can report them in the repository

Have a nice day!
