=== Moving containers/workspaces to RandR outputs
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
[[move_to_outputs]]
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
To move a container to another RandR output (addressed by names like +LVDS1+ or
|
||||||
|
+VGA1+) or to a RandR output identified by a specific direction (like +left+,
|
||||||
|
+right+, +up+ or +down+), there are two commands:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
*Syntax*:
|
||||||
|
--------------------------------------------------------
|
||||||
|
move container to output <<left|right|down|up>|<output>>
|
||||||
|
move workspace to output <<left|right|down|up>|<output>>
|
||||||
|
--------------------------------------------------------
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
*Examples*:
|
||||||
|
--------------------------------------------------------
|
||||||
|
# Move the current workspace to the next output
|
||||||
|
# (effectively toggles when you only have two outputs)
|
||||||
|
bindsym mod+x move workspace to output right
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
# Put this window on the presentation output.
|
||||||
|
bindsym mod+x move container to output VGA1
|
||||||
