*Syntax*:
----------------------------
-bindsym button<n> <command>
+bindsym [--release] button<n> <command>
----------------------------
*Example*:
bar {
# disable clicking on workspace buttons
bindsym button1 nop
+ # Take a screenshot by right clicking on the bar
+ bindsym --release button3 exec --no-startup-id import /tmp/latest-screenshot.png
# execute custom script when scrolling downwards
bindsym button5 exec ~/.i3/scripts/custom_wheel_down
}
To change focus, you can use the +focus+ command. The following options are
available:
+<criteria>::
+ Sets focus to the container that matches the specified criteria.
+ See <<command_criteria>>.
left|right|up|down::
Sets focus to the nearest container in the given direction.
parent::
*Syntax*:
----------------------------------------------
+<criteria> focus
focus left|right|down|up
focus parent|child|floating|tiling|mode_toggle
focus output left|right|up|down|primary|<output>
*Examples*:
-------------------------------------------------
+# Focus firefox
+bindsym $mod+F1 [class="Firefox"] focus
+
# Focus container on the left, bottom, top, right
bindsym $mod+j focus left
bindsym $mod+k focus down
how many pixels a *floating container* should be grown or shrunk (the default
is 10 pixels). The ppt argument means percentage points and specifies by how
many percentage points a *tiling container* should be grown or shrunk (the
-default is 10 percentage points). Note that +resize set+ will only work for
-floating containers.
+default is 10 percentage points).
+
+Notes about +resize set+: a value of 0 for <width> or <height> means "do
+not resize in this direction", and resizing a tiling container by +px+ is not
+implemented.
It is recommended to define bindings for resizing in a dedicated binding mode.
See <<binding_modes>> and the example in the i3
*Examples*:
---------------------------------------
# Read 1 character and mark the current window with this character
-bindsym $mod+m exec i3-input -p 'mark ' -l 1 -P 'Mark: '
+bindsym $mod+m exec i3-input -F 'mark %s' -l 1 -P 'Mark: '
# Read 1 character and go to the window with the character
-bindsym $mod+g exec i3-input -p 'goto ' -l 1 -P 'Goto: '
+bindsym $mod+g exec i3-input -F '[con_mark="%s"] focus' -l 1 -P 'Goto: '

Alternatively, if you do not want to mess with +i3-input+, you could create
