tile-gaps VS libinput-gestures

I found this!

I paired this with the tile-gaps script to make the floating gap stay floating. In the script's settings you can declare the pixel gap for windows to match the panel gap and check the side that the panel is on.

Also Window Gaps. Not particularly useful but just makes me more happy looking at my desktop.

You can get gaps back with Window Gaps KWin script.

It's called: Window Gaps

You can use this kwin script as a workaround https://store.kde.org/p/1619642 However, it might cause buggy window alignment

See the discussion on https://github.com/nclarius/tile-gaps/issues/16.

I wish I was knowledgeable enough to work it out properly. I would like to be able to make it not expand the panel when I maximise a window. I use Window gaps It would look better if the panel stayed floating

With chromium-based like chrome or chromium, this is not the case but at least I can use libinput gesture to allow navigation using 3 fingers (4 are for workspaces and apps switching). Now, I've enabled wayland on these browsers (set ozone-platform=wayland) and there are these issues:

I don't think there are native gestures in qtile. I use fusuma, since it works better for me on X11 and wayland, but I've also used libinput-gestures in the past when on X11, and that works too.

I personally use libinput-gestures to call commands using touchpad gestures. You can also combine it with ydotool to bind macros and such to your gestures, e.g. 4 fingers swipe down closes the current window, 3 fingers swipe left or right changes workspace, etc

$ sudo apt-get install libinput-tools $ git clone https://github.com/bulletmark/libinput-gestures.git $ cd libinput-gestures $ sudo ./libinput-gestures-setup install $ libinput-gestures-setup autostart start

if using wayland, try https://github.com/OneAdder/libinput_gestures_qt and https://github.com/bulletmark/libinput-gestures

The github has quite a lot of info, so hopefully we can find the right config for what we need on there https://github.com/bulletmark/libinput-gestures

You can easily configure a custom key shortcut to open the "Quick Note" window with a keyboard shortcut. If you really want to run this with a drag-from-edge gesture, I think you can configure a drag gesture with LibInput-Gestures, but I have never tried this for myself.
