window not centered on spawn #12

nolsh commented 2026年03月10日 14:54:04 +01:00

hi, when spawning any window, it doesnt get centered automatically when using focusJump.
instead, it spawns centered on the screen, anchored at the top left corner (see image)

i have to invoke shko.nextFocus with a keybind manually

yeah, i am not sure why exactly this happens, but i will soon get to the bottom of this and fix this bug.
this issue will be kept open until the issue is fixed

@nolsh on further thinking, this would just not work
if every window is already spawned in the middle of the screen, it could cause confusion as windows will spawn in the same place

would it be impossible to offset each window by some fixed value/the width of the previous window? leaving focusJump as false already spawns all windows in the same place (top left corner), so it creates confusion just as much
