Hello,
When I pause komorebi, open new windows, and then resume komorebi, the new windows are not tiled.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behaviour:

  1. Alt + P to pause komorebi. (from whkdrc)
  2. Open another app, say Win + E for Explorer.
  3. Alt + P again to resume komorebi.
  4. Explorer is not tiled automatically.

Operating System

For example:

OS Name:                   Microsoft Windows 11 Pro
OS Version:                10.0.22631 N/A Build 22631

komorebic check Output
KOMOREBI_CONFIG_HOME detected: C:\Users<user>.config\komorebi

Looking for configuration files in C:\Users\Anup.config\komorebi

Found komorebi.json; this file can be passed to the start command with the --config flag

Found C:\Users\user.config\whkdrc; key bindings will be loaded from here when whkd is started, and you can start it automatically using the --whkd flag

@LGUG2Z commented on GitHub (Jun 3, 2024):

This is expected behaviour; komorebi only does a full window scan on launch, and not on unpause, because it would require resetting the window manager state across monitors and workspaces.

In instances like the one you are describing the komorebic manage command should be used via a hotkey while the desired window has focus: https://lgug2z.github.io/komorebi/cli/manage.html
