Currently, it appears that none of layout-specific dispatchers (
layoutmsg
) provide integration with groups. Therefore, for interactions with groups, we are forced to use the regular dispatchers likemoveintogroup
. The issue with this is thatmoveintogroup
takes a direction, which doesn't necessarily behave well with the layout. As a user of the Master layout, I'll provide some example of dispatchers I think could be useful (I imagine similar things could be added for the Dwindle layout, but I've literally never used it):moveintogroup
+layoutmsg,swapnext
).moveintogroup
+layoutmsg,swapwithmaster
).movewindoworgroup
+layoutmsg,swapnext
).As an aside, I also think that it would be nice to have some way to automatically create groups when using
moveintogroup
(or any of these alternatives) if the target window is not in a group. Maybe this could be an option ingroup:
.From my understanding of the rules, none of these solutions are possible yet. Please let me know if I am mistaken.
