# Managing windows
|
|
|
|
komorebi tiles every normal application window that KWin reports, and leaves dialogs, splash
|
|
screens and other windows that are not for tiling alone, and the windows that [rules](rules.md)
|
|
say to ignore. The commands here act on the window
|
|
that has the focus in KWin, take a window out of the layout or back into it, and pause the
|
|
daemon.
|
|
|
|
## Minimizing and closing
|
|
|
|
[`komorebic minimize`](../cli/minimize.md) asks KWin to minimize the window that has the focus,
|
|
and [`komorebic close`](../cli/close.md) asks it to close the window, as the buttons of its title
|
|
bar do.
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
komorebic minimize
|
|
komorebic close
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The window leaves the layout when KWin reports that it was minimized or closed, and the other
|
|
windows of the workspace share the work area. A minimized window comes back into the layout, in a
|
|
container of its own, when it is restored.
|
|
|
|
## Taking a window out of the layout
|
|
|
|
[`komorebic unmanage`](../cli/unmanage.md) takes the window that has the focus out of the layout.
|
|
It stays open, in the middle of the work area with the size it had, and komorebi leaves it alone
|
|
from then on: it does not tile it again, and it does not move it.
|
|
[`komorebic manage`](../cli/manage.md), with that window focused, puts it back in the layout,
|
|
after the focused window, or where the workspace's
|
|
[placement rules](../initial-window-placement-rules.md) say.
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
komorebic unmanage
|
|
komorebic manage
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
`komorebic manage` also takes in a window komorebi missed, such as one that opened while the
|
|
daemon was paused, but not a window an ignore rule covers. The daemon forgets an unmanaged window when it closes, and when the daemon
|
|
stops.
|
|
|
|
## Commands while the focused window is not tiled
|
|
|
|
By default, a command acts on the workspace whatever window has the focus. With
|
|
[`komorebic unmanaged-window-operation-behaviour no-op`](../cli/unmanaged-window-operation-behaviour.md),
|
|
the daemon ignores every command while the window that has the focus is not one of the windows it
|
|
tiles: a floating window, a window it does not manage, or one taken out with
|
|
`komorebic unmanage`. The daemon logs "ignoring commands while active window is not managed by
|
|
komorebi" for each.
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
komorebic unmanaged-window-operation-behaviour no-op
|
|
komorebic unmanaged-window-operation-behaviour op
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The commands that are ignored include `komorebic state`, `komorebic stop` and the command that
|
|
sets the behavior back to `op`: give the focus to a tiled window first.
|
|
|
|
## Pausing
|
|
|
|
[`komorebic toggle-pause`](../cli/toggle-pause.md) pauses the daemon, and the same command
|
|
resumes it. While it is paused, komorebi does not act on what KWin reports, so it moves no
|
|
window, and of its commands it carries out only `toggle-pause`, `state`, `global-state` and
|
|
`stop`. The daemon's state says whether it is paused, as `is_paused`.
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
komorebic toggle-pause
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
What KWin reported while the daemon was paused is not acted on afterwards: a window that opened
|
|
in the meantime is not tiled until it is managed with `komorebic manage`.
