what tiling wm do you use?

I use swaywm, which is a Wayland clone of i3wm.

The main thing I like about sway and i3 is that they have no default behaviour, all the defaults are drawn from a default configuration file so you have a nice solid base you can use to make edits, deactivate defaults, and learn how everything works together. Tiling managers ask you to do a lot of customisation so it's important to get out of the way and expose the configuration clearly.

oh can't believe i've never asked, what does your rofi look like?

it's nothing too special, just one of the ones recommended for use w/ catppuccin

the first is just the standard rofi application launcher and the other two are rofi's dmenu mode that i'm using a python script to display certain things for. pinned is (i hope self-explanatory) and is for applications i keep in the scratchpad.

both of those custom launchers will check if that program is open (more accurately, if a container w/ the relevant mark exists) and switch to it or launch it if it doesn't exist.

webmodes is a submenu of browser profiles and synthia is the very browser profile i'm using rn :3 filepad is (currently) ranger set to open my media vault and notepad is a scratch buffer in a vim instance.

i also have one for screenshots that lets you choose between a selection, container, monitor, or the entire X display ('panorama' or all monitors), and these are still being tweaked and stuff but the basic interface (summon the rofi menu, press the key for the thing, you get the thing) is staying !

@sysvect yea it’s dwm, and tree style tabs is the extension for Firefox to give vertical tabs. Needs a little CSS to make it neat and do things like hide the top tab bar, but there’s tons of snippets and stuff floating around from the extension devs themselves about it.

@sysvect said:

i think you have to use overflow or something in the first problem but i'm not sure

yeah but the textbox is overflow: scroll;

I don't know the height of the sidebar in advance or else I would do something like .tabs-content { max-height: calc(100vh - 39px); } which does work

.main-sidebar { flex-basis: var(--main-sidebar-width); flex-grow: 0; flex-shrink: 0; } [https://stackoverflow.com/questions/71180990/stop-sidebar-resizing-based-on-text-length] does that work?

I don't know the width of the sidebar in advance but if I did something like ( .tabs_content { max-width: 372px; } would work too

how do I make it so that doesn't happen (there should be a scrollbar in the textbox instead)?

how do I prevent the textbox from changing the width the sidebar?
