deck layout

Description

deck is a dwm-layout which is inspired by the TTWM window manager. It applies the monocle-layout to the clients in the stack. The master-client is still visible. The stacked clients are like a deck of cards, hence the name.

deck-rmaster

The vanilla patch doesn't respect the master-area which is defined by the rmaster-patch. To make it work with the rmaster-patch apply the dwm-deck-rmaster patch on top of the dwm-deck patch.

deck-tilegap

The vanilla patch doesn't work properly with patches which add gaps. This means that when the deck-layout is activated gaps are omitted. To make it work with the tilegap-patch apply the dwm-deck-tilegap patch on top of the dwm-deck patch.

deck-double

This patch variant adds a layout function named doubledeck which is similar to the deck layout. However, rather then just creating a deck area in the stack; it also creates a deck area in the master area. This pairs nicely with the bartabgroups patch.
