You can toggle floating mode for a window by pressing +$mod+Shift+Space+. By
dragging the window’s titlebar with your mouse you can move the window
around. By grabbing the borders and moving them you can resize the window. You
-can also do that by using the <<floating_modifier>>.

on the layout the container is in (vertical for splitv and stacking, horizontal
for splith and tabbed). So, in our example with the workspace, the default
layout of the workspace +Container+ is splith (most monitors are widescreen

and *then* open two terminals, i3 will configure your windows like this:

windows are directly attached to one node inside i3’s layout tree, the
workspace node. By default, the workspace node’s orientation is +horizontal+.
-Now you move one of these terminals down (+$mod+k+ by default). The workspace
-node’s orientation will be changed to +vertical+. The terminal window you moved
-down is directly attached to the workspace and appears on the bottom of the
-screen. A new (horizontal) container was created to accommodate the other two
-terminal windows. You will notice this when switching to tabbed mode (for
-example). You would end up having one tab called "another container" and the

A client which has its urgency hint activated.

You can also specify the color to be used to paint the background of the client
windows. This color will be used to paint the window on top of which the client

+=== Mouse warping
+
+By default, when switching focus to a window on a different output (e.g.
+focusing a window on workspace 3 on output VGA-1, coming from workspace 2 on
+LVDS-1), the mouse cursor is warped to the center of that window.
+
+With the +mouse_warping+ option, you can control when the mouse cursor should
+be warped. +none+ disables warping entirely, whereas +output+ is the default
+behavior described above.
+
+*Syntax*:
+---------------------------
+mouse_warping <output|none>
+---------------------------
+
+*Example*:
+------------------
+mouse_warping none

=== Popups during fullscreen mode
When you are in fullscreen mode, some applications still open popup windows
reconfiguring your screens on the fly (they are read only once on startup and
that’s it).
-For people who do cannot modify their +~/.xsession+ to add the
+For people who cannot modify their +~/.xsession+ to add the
+--force-xinerama+ commandline parameter, a configuration option is provided:
*Syntax*:
If an application on another workspace sets an urgency hint, switching to this
workspace may lead to immediate focus of the application, which also means the
-window decoration color would be immediately reseted to +client.focused+. This
+window decoration color would be immediately reset to +client.focused+. This
may make it unnecessarily hard to tell which window originally raised the
event.

+=== Strip workspace numbers
+
+Specifies whether workspace numbers should be displayed within the workspace
+buttons. This is useful if you want to have a named workspace that stays in
+order on the bar according to its number without displaying the number prefix.
+
+When +strip_workspace_numbers+ is set to +yes+, any workspace that has a name of
+the form "[n]:[NAME]" will display only the name. You could use this, for
+instance, to display Roman numerals rather than digits by naming your
+workspaces to "1:I", "2:II", "3:III", "4:IV", ...
+
+The default is to display the full name within the workspace button.
+
+*Syntax*:
+----------------------------------
+strip_workspace_numbers <yes|no>
+----------------------------------
+
+*Example*:
+----------------------------
+bar {
+ strip_workspace_numbers yes
+}
+----------------------------

=== Binding Mode indicator
Specifies whether the current binding mode indicator should be shown or not.
