However, its unicode glyph coverage is limited, the old # X core fonts rendering does not support right-to-left and this being a bitmap # font, it doesn’t scale on retina/hidpi displays. # Use Mouse+$mod to drag floating windows to their wanted position floating_modifier $mod # start a terminal #bindsym $mod+Return exec i3-sensible-terminal bindsym $mod+Return exec urxvt # kill focused window bindsym $mod+Shift+q kill # start dmenu (a program launcher) #bindsym $mod+d exec dmenu_run # wrapper around dmenu supporting .desktop (flatpak) #bindsym $mod+d exec --no-startup-id i3-dmenu-desktop # supposedly more than 25 times faster bindsym $mod+d exec --no-startup-id j4-dmenu-desktop --display-binary --no-generic --dmenu="rofi -dmenu -i" --term="urxvt" #bindsym $mod+d exec --no-startup-id rofi -show drun # change focus bindsym $mod+j focus left bindsym $mod+k focus down bindsym $mod+l focus up bindsym $mod+odiaeresis focus right # alternatively, you can use the cursor keys: bindsym $mod+Left focus left bindsym $mod+Down focus down bindsym $mod+Up focus up bindsym $mod+Right focus right # move focused window bindsym $mod+Shift+j move left bindsym $mod+Shift+k move down bindsym $mod+Shift+l move up bindsym $mod+Shift+odiaeresis move right # alternatively, you can use the cursor keys: bindsym $mod+Shift+Left move left bindsym $mod+Shift+Down move down bindsym $mod+Shift+Up move up bindsym $mod+Shift+Right move right # split in horizontal orientation bindsym $mod+h split h # split in vertical orientation bindsym $mod+v split v # enter fullscreen mode for the focused container bindsym $mod+f fullscreen toggle # change container layout (stacked, tabbed, toggle split) bindsym $mod+s layout stacking bindsym $mod+w layout tabbed bindsym $mod+e layout toggle split # toggle tiling / floating bindsym $mod+Shift+space floating toggle # change focus between tiling / floating windows bindsym $mod+space focus mode_toggle # focus the parent container bindsym $mod+a focus parent # focus the child container #bindsym $mod+d focus child # Define names for default workspaces for which we configure key bindings later on. # We use variables to avoid repeating the names in multiple places. set $ws1 "1" set $ws2 "2" set $ws3 "3" set $ws4 "4" set $ws5 "5" set $ws6 "6" set $ws7 "7" set $ws8 "8" set $ws9 "9" set $ws10 "10" # switch to workspace bindsym $mod+1 workspace $ws1 bindsym $mod+2 workspace $ws2 bindsym $mod+3 workspace $ws3 bindsym $mod+4 workspace $ws4 bindsym $mod+5 workspace $ws5 bindsym $mod+6 workspace $ws6 bindsym $mod+7 workspace $ws7 bindsym $mod+8 workspace $ws8 bindsym $mod+9 workspace $ws9 bindsym $mod+0 workspace $ws10 # move focused container to workspace bindsym $mod+Shift+1 move container to workspace $ws1 bindsym $mod+Shift+2 move container to workspace $ws2 bindsym $mod+Shift+3 move container to workspace $ws3 bindsym $mod+Shift+4 move container to workspace $ws4 bindsym $mod+Shift+5 move container to workspace $ws5 bindsym $mod+Shift+6 move container to workspace $ws6 bindsym $mod+Shift+7 move container to workspace $ws7 bindsym $mod+Shift+8 move container to workspace $ws8 bindsym $mod+Shift+9 move container to workspace $ws9 bindsym $mod+Shift+0 move container to workspace $ws10 # reload the configuration file bindsym $mod+Shift+c reload # restart i3 inplace (preserves your layout/session, can be used to upgrade i3) bindsym $mod+Shift+r restart # exit i3 (logs you out of your X session) bindsym $mod+Shift+e exec "i3-nagbar -t warning -m 'You pressed the exit shortcut.
