i3-instant-layout

Automatic 'list based' layouts for the i3 window manager

Animated summary

Demo of i3-instant-layout

Description

This python program drags i3 into the 'managed layouts tiling window manager world' kicking and screaming.

What it does is apply a window layout to your current workspace, like this one:

-------------
|     |  2  |
|     |-----|
|  1  |  3  |
|     |-----|
|     |  4  |
-------------

The big advantage here is that it needs no 'swallow' definitions whatsoever, it's 'instant' - just add milk, eh, press the button.

Get started

i3-instant-layout depends xdotool which can be installed by your package manager (e.g. sudo apt-get install xdotool on Debian or Ubuntu)

To get started, install with pip install i3-instant-layout, or if you prefer, pipx and add this to your i3 config: bindsym $mod+Escape exec "i3-instant-layout --list | rofi -dmenu -i | i3-instant-layout - (or use the interactive menu of your choice).

Further information

Call i3-instant-layout --help for full details, or i3-instant-layout --desc for the full list of supported layouts (or see below).

Helpful tips

How to sort windows

Your current active window is what the tiler will consider the 'main window'.

To get the other windows in the right order for your layout of choice, first enable the vStack or hStack layout, sort them, and the proceed to your layout of choice.

Border styles

i3-instant-layout must unmap/map the windows (ie. hide them temporarily) for i3 to place them at the right location. Unfortunatly that appears to consume the border style. Work around this with a line like this in your i3 config:

for_window [class="^.*"] border pixel 1
