change sizegaps on all workspaces

[andynameistaken]

Hi, is it possible to increase/decrease gaps in every workspace at the same time?

If you have not used space-specific padding, the following commands will adjust the padding on all spaces:

yabai -m config top_padding                  20
yabai -m config bottom_padding               20
yabai -m config left_padding                 20
yabai -m config right_padding                20
yabai -m config window_gap                   10

There is no built-in way to do an increase/decrease, but you can write a script that retrieves the current value by running yabai -m config top_padding and then add/subtract from the value yourself before calling yabai -m config top_padding <value>

You can also write a script that queries all spaces yabai -m query --spaces and call yabai -m space <index> --padding rel:20:0:0:0 in a for loop.

syntax is: yabai -m space <space> --padding abs|rel:top:bottom:left:right
