Awesome-WM restrict client size
Is it possible in Awesome-WM to restrict a client window, namely my IM contact list, to a specific size?
Solution 1:
you need to make the window floating, so it is ignogrd in the tiling layouts. Adding this to the suggestion above:
-- [...]
{
rule = { class = "your-app-class-here" },
properties = { floating = true },
callback = function( c )
c:geometry( { width = 200 , height = 800 } )
end
},
-- [...]
Solution 2:
Add a rule in your rc.lua
in the table awful.rules.rules
, for example:
-- [...] { rule = { class = "your-app-class-here" }, callback = function( c ) c:geometry( { width = 200 , height = 800 } ) end }, -- [...]
