Sorry for I'm not good at English, I'm not a programmer either...

I use a 24' moniter, I'm in love with custom layout. My primary windows is 75% width.

When there are 3 or more windows open, everything is fine. My primary window is big enough and other windows are waiting my call in a near position.

When there are 2 windows open, windows are equal width awkwardly. My browser is not wide enough... I kown it's meant to be like this to optimize for ultrawide screen, but can komorebi add a switch to allow widthPercentage vavlue always take effect even windows number is less or equal than custom layout colomn number?

That will be perfect for me, thanks!

@kls1991 Check out the dynamic layout selection rules feature that I have just committed to the master branch. With this, you can specify another custom layout that you wish to apply when there are only two windows open, and with this you can specify the desired width of the primary column:

# layout-for-0-or-more-windows.yaml
- column: Primary
  configuration:
    WidthPercentage: 65
- column: Tertiary
  configuration: Horizontal

You can apply this rule with:

# 0 0 0 = monitor 0, workspace 0, when there are 0 or more windows visible
# you can change the first two arguments to your desired monitor and workspace index
komorebic workspace-custom-layout-rule 0 0 0 ~/layout-for-0-or-more-windows.yaml

Then, you can add one more rule to apply your existing custom layout when there are 3 or more windows open:

# 0 0 3 = monitor 0, workspace 0, when there are 3 or more windows visible
# you can change the first two arguments to your desired monitor and workspace index
komorebic workspace-custom-layout-rule 0 0 3 ~/your-existing-custom-layout.yaml

There are still a few more issues I want to resolve before the next release, so it might be a little while before the new release is available on scoop, but if you already want to try this out you can download the exe files from the latest commit here and replace the current exe files on your system.

I'm trying to achieve same thing but it's not working. The layout doesn't apply when there's less than 3 window, even after komorebic workspace-custom-layout-rule 0 0 0 <layout> command

I'm using latest source code
