From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Ooh, I moved to hyprland a few months ago and fell in love, but sway will give me static layouts? My singular gripe with hyprland is I want to keep my RDP app fixed to a size and never resized for anything, because when that window resizes inadvertently, I have to MFA half a dozen connections. I mostly like the dynamic tiling, but I'd like to fix one window on one workspace and never have it resize.
Have you tried window rules to make RDP automatically spawn onto a different workspace? Or you can set it to float and keep aspect ratio with window rules and maybe with minimum size so it doesn't get too small.
I haven't played with pseudo tiling, by default it's
super+pI think it keeps aspect ratio and size but I haven't messed with it that much. If pseudo works you can set that as a window rules probably with size.I think it's called manual wm, my bad. I think there's a way to define a layout for arranging the windows in a certain way. Regardless you tell it to either vertically or horizontally split the currently focused window when you spawn a new window.
There might even be a way to define how a dynamic wm extension arranged windows by creating a pattern or set of rules. When I have more free time I want to play with it on my laptop because they just don't want to bother with Nvidia like Hyperland has.
Edit: now I wanna play with window rules and find a solution to your RDP problem.
