XMonad.Layout.MosaicAlt

Description

A layout which gives each window a specified amount of screen space relative to the others. Compared to the `Mosaic` layout, this one divides the space in a more balanced way.

Synopsis

- newtype MosaicAlt a = MosaicAlt Params
- shrinkWindowAlt :: Window -> HandleWindowAlt
- expandWindowAlt :: Window -> HandleWindowAlt
- tallWindowAlt :: Window -> HandleWindowAlt
- wideWindowAlt :: Window -> HandleWindowAlt
- resetAlt :: HandleWindowAlt
- type Params = Map Window Param
- data Param
- data HandleWindowAlt

# Usage:

You can use this module with the following in your `xmonad.hs`:

    import XMonad.Layout.MosaicAlt
    import qualified Data.Map as M

Then edit your `layoutHook` by adding the MosaicAlt layout:

    myLayout = MosaicAlt M.empty ||| Full ||| etc..
    main = xmonad def { layoutHook = myLayout }

For more detailed instructions on editing the layoutHook see the tutorial and XMonad.Doc.Extending.

In the key-bindings, do something like:

        , ((modm .|. shiftMask  , xK_a    ), withFocused (sendMessage . expandWindowAlt))
        , ((modm .|. shiftMask  , xK_z    ), withFocused (sendMessage . shrinkWindowAlt))
        , ((modm .|. shiftMask  , xK_s    ), withFocused (sendMessage . tallWindowAlt))
        , ((modm .|. shiftMask  , xK_d    ), withFocused (sendMessage . wideWindowAlt))
        , ((modm .|. controlMask, xK_space), sendMessage resetAlt)
        ...
