Well, since amount of tiling is determined by whatever has been set up in the tiling editor, an answer to this question seems to me just a "undefined behavior". From technical POV I think the solution is to just start creating a new layer of tiling. From usability POV I think it may be better to put a window freely over the tiles, to let the user chose what to do with it. Either solution works since a user know they ran out of tiles. > The UX of a typical tiling WM is not as simple as it seems. FWIW, Idk if i3wm has predefined tiling maps, but even if it has I never used it. To me the UX here is to just open a new window and let i3 to tile it in a way so all windows take equal amount of space. I may adjust it afterwards if so desired (but I rarely do that because I don't typically use more than 2 windows on a single workspace). Generally, this part is simple as well. But since we have tiling editor whom windows should obey, making windows "take equal space automatically" would require changes to the editor, so I wouldn't bother about it for now 😊 -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
