have you considered your rule being wrong...?

That's not gonna match ^(.*About.*)$

[colorsakura]

https://we.tl/t-MCzduWPvtD

this is video.

[uzvg]

Perhaps it matches initialTitle, not title, i set the title field value with ^(Firefox)$, and then it worked.

[felixsanz]

@vaxerski I think it's a valid bug. It doesn't also work for me.

    class: firefox
    title: Developer Tools — some windowrulev2 not work · Issue #2380 · hyprwm/Hyprland — https://github.com/hyprwm/Hyprland/issues/2380
    initialClass: firefox
    initialTitle: Firefox

None of this work (tried both class:(firefox) and class:(Firefox)):

windowrulev2 = float,class:(firefox),title:^(Developer Tools)(.*)

windowrulev2 = float,class:(firefox),title:^(Developer Tools)(.*)$

windowrulev2 = float,class:(firefox),title:^(Developer Tools.*)

windowrulev2 = float,class:(firefox),title:^(Developer Tools.*)$

I'm doing something wrong?

[vaxerski]

float is not a dynamic rule and thus uses the initial properties.

[felixsanz]

float is not a dynamic rule and thus uses the initial properties.

so... if initial values are "firefox/Firefox", how can I target this developer tools? i don't want the entire firefox window to be floated, only the picture in picture, the devtools, etc

[vaxerski]

you can't :)

or you could make a script listen to socket2's title change events and dynamically call togglefloating I guess

[felixsanz]

you can't :)

or you could make a script listen to socket2's title change events and dynamically call togglefloating I guess

can it be solved? i mean... if you can't float a picture-in-picture window, it looks like a bug!

[vaxerski]

yes. You have to ask firefox developers to fix it :)

[felixsanz]

yes. You have to ask firefox developers to fix it :)

why it works on sway then?
