screen layout does not fit to intended configuration #17
Description
Hi,
when starting nnako.pyw from the examples folder, I can cycle through the existing "themes" using <WIN> + <CTRL> + <SPACE>. The desired main theme for my process would be static_bigscreen_8.
In nnako.pyw an application index list has been defined as follows. There would be 8 applications to be placed on the screen:
# list of application windows to be managed
WmRule(exe="cmd.exe", title="nvim", static_window_index=0),
WmRule(exe="cmd.exe", static_window_index=1),
WmRule(exe="notepad++.exe", static_window_index=2),
WmRule(
exe="freeplane.exe",
title="freeplane",
static_window_index=3,
),
WmRule(exe="chrome.exe", static_window_index=4),
WmRule(exe="ms-teams.exe", static_window_index=5),
WmRule(exe="yEd.exe", static_window_index=6),
WmRule(exe="EXCEL.EXE", static_window_index=7),On activation of that static_bigscreen_8 theme, the applications are to be expected to show like this (see static_bigscreen_8 function within src/jigsawwm/tiler/layouts.py). I adjusted the displayed index values to match the static_window_index values within the example:
+----------+----------+----------+----------+
| | | | |
| | | | |
| 5 | 6 | 7 | |
| | | | |
| | | | |
+----------+--+-----+-+----------+ |
| | | | |
| | | | |
| | | | |
| | | | 3 |
| | 2 | 0 | |
| 4 | | | |
| | | | |
| | | | |
| +-----+------------| |
| | | |
| | 1 | |
+-------------+------------------+----------+
But when activating that theme, the sequence does not seem to be correct (while the single window sizes seem correct).
+----------+----------+----------+----------+
| | | | |
| | | | |
| 3 | 1 | 0 | |
| | | | |
| | | | |
+----------+--+-----+-+----------+ |
| | | | |
| | | | |
| | | | |
| | | | 6 |
| | 5 | 2 | |
| 7 | | | |
| | | | |
| | | | |
| +-----+------------| |
| | | |
| | 4 | |
+-------------+------------------+----------+
Somehow, the order got messed up or I haven't understood the concept behind the static_window_index parameter within the WmRule() functions and the layouting sequence defined within layouts.py.
Any hints?
