  • [ New Package Request ] SwayFX
    3 projects | /r/voidlinux | 3 Jun 2023
    What are the chances of SwayFX being added to the repo ? I see someone had put in a PR but it was never accepted and also the package is now at version 0.3 whereas the person who put in the PR is still at 0.2 since April. Would it be bad practice for me to put in an updated PR that works as I'd be keen to maintain that package for sure ?

  • Is there a way to minimize windows/tasks?
    3 projects | /r/swaywm | 15 Nov 2022
    Most commonly, the scratchpad is used as a "minimize." There is an open issue to treat it as an actual minimize in terms of wlroots, which it currently does not do and, the issue states, can cause a crash when trying to un-minimize applications that are currently hidden on the scratchpad. You can see the github issue for more info here. There is also a patch available (link in the issue discussion) that adds the minimize functionality if you're willing to compile it yourself. I have not tested it since I don't use a taskbar and just throw unused windows into another workspace until I need them. SwayFX, a fork that was just released, which I'm currently running for the window decorations has this patch already applied.
