Workspace Rules

You can set workspace rules to achieve workspace-specific behaviors. For instance, you can define a workspace where all windows are drawn without borders or gaps.

Syntax

workspace=MONITOR,WORKSPACE,RULES
  • MONITOR is a valid monitor identifier (see Monitors). You can use this rule to set the default workspace for the given monitor (see Monitors->Default Workspace). This field is optional and can be omitted entirely;
  • WORKSPACE is a valid workspace identifier (see Dispatchers->Workspaces). This field is mandatory;
  • RULES is one (or more) rule(s) as described here in rules.

Examples

workspace=name:myworkspace,gapsin:0,gapsout:0
workspace=DP-1,3,rounding:false,bordersize:0

Rules

Rule Description type
gapsin:[x] Set the gaps between windows (equivalent to General->gaps_in) int
gapsout:[x] Set the gaps between windows and monitor edges (equivalent to General->gaps_out) int
bordersize:[x] Set the border size around windows (equivalent to General->border_size) int
border:[b] Whether to draw borders or not bool
rounding:[b] Whether to draw rounded windows or not bool
decorate:[b] Whether to draw window decorations or not bool
monitor:[m] Monitor identifier. This is equivalent to the first MONITOR argument. See syntax and Monitors. string

Example Rules

workspace=3, rounding:false, decorate:false
workspace=name:coding, rounding:false, decorate:false, gapsin:0, gapsout:0, border:false, decorate:false, monitor:DP-1
workspace=DP-1, 2
workspace=8,bordersize:8
