On vertical displays, the master and stack area make poor use of the screen #23

Closed suhail-singh closed 4 weeks ago

suhail-singh commented 4 weeks ago

Symptom On displays that are taller than they are wide (i.e., "vertical" displays), krohnkite splits the screen along the narrower dimension, assigning Master to the left and Stack to the right. This is problematic.

How to Reproduce

  1. Have a screen that is oriented vertically.
  2. Launch 2 or more windows on that screen.
  3. See error.

Expected behavior It would be helpful if krohnkite had a user configuration which allowed the user to specify if Master/Stack should always be split into left/right, or whether on vertical displays the screen ought to be split into top/bottom.

Environment

Notes N/A.

It seems the latest (0.9.5) release may have some fixes for this. I failed to realize that the latest on KDE store is 0.9.4 which isn't the latest release. Apologies for the noise. I'll close this for now till I've had a chance to try 0.9.5.
