KDE {Tools}

Use Window Rules with its Detect Window Properties to both get a detection rule set, e.g window name, and also properties to apply to, e.g. size and position.

What if your favorite web pages would arrange themselves on your desktop and enable new workflow by exchanging "just" text, including URLs?🤔

Loaded via WindowsSetup?action=source and direclty via the CLI for P in $(curl -s https://fabien.benetou.fr/PIMVRdata/WindowsSetup?action=source | grep -v "^#"); do firefox -P PIMWM -kiosk --new-window $P & done. Note that the specific profile might not be required but kiosk mode seems finicky and could be applied to an existing instance.

My notes on Tools gather what I know or want to know. Consequently they are not and will never be complete references. For this, official manuals and online communities provide much better answers.
