Summary

I have a chrome on the 1st workspace as initial workspace rule so the chrome will always open on the 1st workspace, if I open another chrome window on the 1st workspace, it append properly to a stack since I have "window_container_behaviour": "Append" config on the 1st workspace, but If I open another chrome from another workspace, it doesn't to append to it. It opened in a new tile. Im expecting the window to append in a stack. and take note, all the workspace has "window_container_behaviour": "Append"` config.

Originally created by @jeeeem on GitHub (Mar 27, 2025). ### Summary I have a chrome on the 1st workspace as `initial workspace rule` so the chrome will always open on the 1st workspace, if I open another chrome window on the 1st workspace, it append properly to a stack since I have ` "window_container_behaviour": "Append"` config on the 1st workspace, but If I open another chrome from another workspace, it doesn't to append to it. It opened in a new tile. Im expecting the window to append in a stack. and take note, all the workspace has "window_container_behaviour": "Append"` config. ### Version Information komorebic 0.1.36 branch:master

@LGUG2Z commented on GitHub (Apr 4, 2025):

but If I open another chrome from another workspace, it doesn't to append to it.

This is expected behaviour; window_container_behaviour only applies to windows opened on the workspace with that configuration now, not to windows moved to that workspace (ie. through workspace rules).

I'm open to accepting a PR which puts the desired behaviour you're talking about behind a separate opt-in configuration option if you or anyone else wants this enough to work on it.
