Windows Rules (Shuffler) doesn't seem to work

[vlijm]

Sure,

1. Create the directory ~/.config/budgie-extras/shuffler/windowrules

2. Create a file containing these fields:

   XPosition=0
   YPosition=0
   Cols=2
   Rows=2
   XSpan=1
   YSpan=1
   Monitor=HDMI-1
   

   Save it, named after the WM class of the application’s windows, like: gedit.windowrule
   NB: the fields refer to grid positions & sizes, not px positions!

3. Now let’s switch rules on:

   gsettings set org.ubuntubudgie.windowshuffler windowrules true
   

This example will make new gedit windows open in topleft quarter, on monitor HDMI-1. Any changes you make to the .windowrule file, or any new file, will be applied immediately.
