XMonad.Layout.GridVariants
Contents
Description
Two layouts: one is a variant of the Grid layout that allows the desired aspect ratio of windows to be specified. The other is like Tall but places a grid with fixed number of rows and columns in the master area and uses an aspect-ratio-specified layout for the slaves.
Usage
This module can be used as follows:
import XMonad.Layout.GridVariants
Then add something like this to your layouts:
Grid (16/10)
for a 16:10 aspect ratio grid, or
SplitGrid L 2 3 (2/3) (16/10) (5/100)
for a layout with a 2x3 master grid that uses 2/3 of the screen, and a 16:10 aspect ratio slave grid to its right. The last parameter is again the percentage by which the split between master and slave area changes in response to Expand/Shrink messages.
To be able to change the geometry of the master grid, add something like this to your keybindings:
((modm .|. shiftMask, xK_equal), sendMessage $ IncMasterCols 1), ((modm .|. shiftMask, xK_minus), sendMessage $ IncMasterCols (-1)), ((modm .|. controlMask, xK_equal), sendMessage $ IncMasterRows 1), ((modm .|. controlMask, xK_minus), sendMessage $ IncMasterRows (-1))
data ChangeMasterGridGeom Source
The geometry change message understood by the master grid
Constructors
| IncMasterRows !Int | Change the number of master rows | 
| IncMasterCols !Int | Change the number of master columns | 
| SetMasterRows !Int | Set the number of master rows to absolute value | 
| SetMasterCols !Int | Set the number of master columns to absolute value | 
| SetMasterFraction !Rational | Set the fraction of the screen used by the master grid | 
Instances
data ChangeGridGeom Source

Instances
Grid layout. The parameter is the desired x:y aspect ratio of windows
TallGrid layout. Parameters are
- number of master rows
- number of master columns
- portion of screen used for master grid
- x:y aspect ratio of slave windows
- increment for resize messages
This exists mostly because it was introduced in an earlier version. It's a fairly thin wrapper around "SplitGrid L".
SplitGrid layout. Parameters are
- side where the master is
- number of master rows
- number of master columns
- portion of screen used for master grid
- x:y aspect ratio of slave windows
- increment for resize messages
data Orientation Source
Type to specify the side of the screen that holds the master area of a SplitGrid.
