How to make some apps always float on COSMIC desktop ? - Create the following
file :
~/.config/cosmic/com.system76.CosmicSettings.WindowRules/v1/tiling_exception_custom
With the following content : [] bash mkdir -p
~/.config/cosmic/com.system76.CosmicSettings.WindowRules/v1 && \ echo '[]' >
~/.config/cosmic/com.system76.CosmicSettings.WindowRules/v1/tiling_exception_custom
- In between the brackets, add one like per app in the following format :
(appid: "", title: ".*", enabled: true)
With the process name between the first quotation marks, and for each line that
is followed by another, a comma at the end. bash vim
~/.config/cosmic/com.system76.CosmicSettings.WindowRules/v1/tiling_exception_custom
rust [ (appid: "qalculate-gtk", title: ".*", enabled: true), (appid: "copyq",
title: ".*", enabled: true) ] - This setting will apply immediately upon saving,
without requiring logout/reboot. — Also, here
[https://github.com/pop-os/cosmic-comp/blob/master/data/tiling-exceptions.ron]’s
the list of apps that always float by default. It can be replaced by creating
the same file at
~/.config/cosmic/com.system76.CosmicSettings.WindowRules/tiling-exceptions-custom.ron.
Note title (string) turning into titles (array) and enabled not being present.
