Behavior of hy3:movewindow on floating windows

[aacebedo]

I am trying to get a single bind to be able to move a floating window with moveactive and to move a tiled window with hy3:movewindow.

It is possible with sway, but I don't find a way to filter correctly the bind with hyprland.
Is there any way to do that ?

#73 maybe?

[aacebedo]

Seems those commits have been reverted. Is there a new version incoming?

In the meanwhile, I use a script for this:

The script

#! /usr/bin/env zsh

direction=$1

delta=10

active=($(hyprctl activewindow -j | jq -r '.address + "\n" + (.floating | tostring)'))
address=$active[1]
floating=$active[2]

# if the first argument to a dispatcher is a negative number,
# hyprctl parses it as an argument to itself, not to the dispatcher.
# since a move left would require arguments `-px px,...`, this
# has to be handled via a different dispatcher
handleMoveLeft () {
  curr=($(hyprctl activewindow -j | jq -r '(.at[0] | tostring) + "\n" + (.at[1] | tostring)'))
  y=$curr[2]
  x=$(( curr[1] - $delta ))
  hyprctl dispatch movewindowpixel "exact $x $y,address:$address"
  exit 0
}

if $floating; then
  case $direction in
    l|left)  handleMoveLeft ;;
    r|right) resizeparams="$delta 0" ;;
    u|up)    resizeparams="0 -$delta" ;;
    d|down)  resizeparams="0 $delta" ;;
  esac
  hyprctl dispatch movewindowpixel "$resizeparams,address:$address"
else
  hyprctl dispatch hy3:movewindow $direction,once,visible
fi

And the following bindings:

binde = $mod SHIFT, left , exec, $scripts/move-floating-or-tiled-win.zsh left
binde = $mod SHIFT, down , exec, $scripts/move-floating-or-tiled-win.zsh down
binde = $mod SHIFT, up   , exec, $scripts/move-floating-or-tiled-win.zsh up
binde = $mod SHIFT, right, exec, $scripts/move-floating-or-tiled-win.zsh right
