Layouts

Horizontal

This layout has one column per window, with each window extending the full height of the screen.

Vertical

The rotated version of Horizontal, where each window takes up an entire row, extending the full width of the screen.

HorizontalGrid

This layout places the windows in grid occuping space in horizontal when necessary.

VerticalGrid

This layout places the windows in grid occuping space in vertical when necessary.

Monocle

In this layout, the currently focused window takes up the entire screen, and the other windows are not visible at all.

Wide

The rotated version of tall.

Tall

The default layout. This gives you one "main pane" on the left, and one other pane on the right. The main window is placed in the main pane (extending the full height of the screen), and all remaining windows are placed in the other pane. The main pane can be shrinked/expanded.
