Description

The XMonad.Layout.LayoutCombinators module provides combinators for easily combining multiple layouts into one composite layout, as well as a way to jump directly to any particular layout (say, with a keybinding) without having to cycle through other layouts to get to it.

# Usage

You can use this module with the following in your `~/.xmonad/xmonad.hs`:

    import XMonad.Layout.LayoutCombinators hiding ( (|||) )

Then edit your `layoutHook` to use the new layout combinators. For example:

    myLayout = (Tall 1 (3/100) (1/2) *//* Full)  ||| (Tall 1 (3/100) (1/2) ***||** Full) ||| Full ||| etc..
    main = xmonad def { layoutHook = myLayout }

For more detailed instructions on editing the `layoutHook` see:

XMonad.Doc.Extending

To use the `JumpToLayout` message, hide the normal `|||` operator instead:

    import XMonad hiding ( (|||) )
    import XMonad.Layout.LayoutCombinators

If you import XMonad.Layout, you will need to hide it from there as well. Then bind some keys to a `JumpToLayout` message:

      , ((modm .|. controlMask, xK_f), sendMessage $ JumpToLayout "Full")  -- jump directly to the Full layout

See below for more detailed documentation.

# Layout combinators

Each of the following combinators combines two layouts into a single composite layout by splitting the screen into two regions, one governed by each layout. Asterisks in the combinator names denote the relative amount of screen space given to the respective layouts. For example, the `***||*` combinator gives three times as much space to the left-hand layout as to the right-hand layout.

## Combinators using DragPane vertical

These combinators combine two layouts using XMonad.DragPane in vertical mode.

# New layout choice combinator and `JumpToLayout`

The standard xmonad core exports a layout combinator `|||` which represents layout choice. This is a reimplementation which also provides the capability to support `JumpToLayout` messages. To use it, be sure to hide the import of `|||` from the xmonad core; if either of these two lines appear in your configuration:

    import XMonad
    import XMonad.Layout

replace them with these instead, respectively:

    import XMonad hiding ( (|||) )
    import XMonad.Layout hiding ( (|||) )

The argument given to a `JumpToLayout` message should be the `description` of the layout to be selected. If you use XMonad.Hooks.DynamicLog, this is the name of the layout displayed in your status bar. Alternatively, you can use GHCi to determine the proper name to use. For example:

    $ ghci
    GHCi, version 6.8.2: http://www.haskell.org/ghc/  :? for help
    Loading package base ... linking ... done.
    :set prompt "> "    -- don't show loaded module names
    > :m +XMonad.Core   -- load the xmonad core
    > :m +XMonad.Layout.Grid  -- load whatever module you want to use
    > description Grid  -- find out what it's called
    "Grid"

As yet another (possibly easier) alternative, you can use the XMonad.Layout.Named modifier to give custom names to your layouts, and use those.

For the ability to select a layout from a prompt, see Xmonad.Prompt.Layout.

(|||) :: (LayoutClass l1 a, LayoutClass l2 a) => l1 a -> l2 a -> NewSelect l1 l2 a infixr 5 Source #

A reimplementation of the combinator of the same name from the xmonad core, providing layout choice, and the ability to support `JumpToLayout` messages.
