Some ideas to inprove it #63
Comments
Unfortunately, replicating Moom's popup is more difficult than it sounds because of differences between OSX and X11.
The main issue is that there's no simple, reliable, efficient way to figure out where those titlebar buttons are (or even if they exist)... I could add a keyboard-triggered popup (or possibly triggered by an extra mouse button on fancy mice) which appears at the mouse cursor, but not what Moom does. Also, given that QuickTile relies on the dangerous ability for any X11 application to meddle in any other X11 application, I don't want to spend too much effort on new features because Wayland will make it impossible anyway. (On Wayland, sensitive things like moving windows and accepting passwords are handled as part of the compositor and applications don't have those privileges.) As for having it remember positions, I actually have been wanting to do that for years but things keep coming up which eat up the time I need to rework its innards for better extensibility. At the moment, all my time is taken up by my degree project, but I'll leave this open as a TODO note. |
Given that Wayland is taking significantly longer to mature than I'd expected, I'll consider implementing what is feasible of these options. No promises, but we'll see how much motivation I have when I finish clearing out all the bugs. |
The program is great, thanks :)
I have two ideas for improvement.
