### Usage
|
|
|
|
To enable:
|
|
|
|
```lua
|
|
bling.widget.window_switcher.enable {
|
|
type = "thumbnail", -- set to anything other than "thumbnail" to disable client previews
|
|
|
|
-- keybindings (the examples provided are also the default if kept unset)
|
|
hide_window_switcher_key = "Escape", -- The key on which to close the popup
|
|
minimize_key = "n", -- The key on which to minimize the selected client
|
|
unminimize_key = "N", -- The key on which to unminimize all clients
|
|
kill_client_key = "q", -- The key on which to close the selected client
|
|
cycle_key = "Tab", -- The key on which to cycle through all clients
|
|
previous_key = "Left", -- The key on which to select the previous client
|
|
next_key = "Right", -- The key on which to select the next client
|
|
vim_previous_key = "h", -- Alternative key on which to select the previous client
|
|
vim_next_key = "l", -- Alternative key on which to select the next client
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
To run the window swicher you have to emit this signal from within your configuration (usually using a keybind).
|
|
|
|
```lua
|
|
awesome.emit_signal("bling::window_switcher::turn_on")
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
For example:
|
|
```lua
|
|
awful.key({Mod1}, "Tab", function()
|
|
awesome.emit_signal("bling::window_switcher::turn_on")
|
|
end, {description = "Window Switcher", group = "bling"})
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
