-- Columns: a custom (Lua) tiling layout — a row of vertical columns. Think of it as
|
||
-- one long horizontal strip of columns that spans every monitor: focus/move flow off
|
||
-- the edge of one monitor onto the next, so it behaves like a huge row of scrolling
|
||
-- workspaces rather than a set of isolated boxes.
|
||
--
|
||
-- Each column is an INDEPENDENTLY-SCROLLING vertical strip (the whole point): when a
|
||
-- column holds more windows than fit, it pans to keep the focused one in view while the
|
||
-- other columns stay put — like the wheels of a combination lock. Sizing is flexible,
|
||
-- nothing is a fixed fraction:
|
||
-- * Each COLUMN has a width weight; the viewport width is split between columns by
|
||
-- those weights. Resizing left/right grows/shrinks the focused column.
|
||
-- * Each WINDOW has a height weight. The base height of a weight-1 window is
|
||
-- viewport/`rows` (rows = windows-per-view). A column that is *underfull* stretches
|
||
-- its windows to fill (a lone window fills the column; two equal windows share it
|
||
-- 50/50) — so you can stack a file-explorer over a terminal in column 1 while
|
||
-- Firefox owns column 2. A column that is *overfull* keeps natural heights and
|
||
-- SCROLLS. Resizing up/down retunes the focused window's height weight.
|
||
-- Weights and per-column pan persist across relayouts.
|
||
--
|
||
-- This is a real custom layout (hl.layout.register), not the built-in scrolling engine —
|
||
-- that one has a single shared tape; this pans each column apart.
|
||
--
|
||
-- Controls (routed here from binds.lua via `hl.dsp.layout("<cmd>")` → layout_msg):
|
||
-- focus l/r/u/d — l/r step between columns (off the edge → next/prev monitor),
|
||
-- u/d step within the focused column (which pans to it). Swap vertical.
|
||
-- move l/r/u/d — l/r move between columns (off the edge → next/prev monitor).
|
||
-- u/d PARK/UNPARK within the column: moving toward a single neighbour
|
||
-- parks the two side by side in one slot (persistent; both keep the full
|
||
-- scroll-axis length, split across the column — a vertical divider when
|
||
-- horizontal — and the column closes up so there's no gap). Moving a
|
||
-- parked window again pops it out and past its partner.
|
||
-- resize l/r/u/d — l/r change the focused column's width, u/d the focused window's
|
||
-- height (weights, so neighbours give/take space). Axes swap vertical.
|
||
-- count h/j/k/l — horizontal ws: h/l = −/＋ columns, k/j = −/＋ windows-per-view.
|
||
-- vertical ws: k/j = −/＋ columns, h/l = −/＋ per-view.
|
||
-- cols +/-/N — direct column-count set (the menu's stepper).
|
||
-- orient h/v — orientation (set from the menu dropdown).
|
||
-- center on/off/toggle — "center-focused" switch (menu): when a column is overfull
|
||
-- and scrolls, keep the focused window centred in the column
|
||
-- instead of the minimal-movement default (whichever edge of the
|
||
-- focused window would otherwise go off-screen just barely comes
|
||
-- back into view). Global (mirrors the scrolling layout's
|
||
-- "Centered follow" toggle), persisted across reloads, OFF by
|
||
-- default. Only ever repositions the column holding the focused
|
||
-- window — every other column's pan is untouched, since there is
|
||
-- only one focused window at a time.
