--- # Default settings for amethyst # Repo: `https://github.com/ianyh/Amethyst` # # Note due to issue 1419 (https://github.com/ianyh/Amethyst/issues/1419) some # config values may conflict and not work if they are the same as the default # values for amathyst. You can see these values on GitHub at # https://github.com/ianyh/Amethyst/blob/development/Amethyst/default.amethyst # If you're experiencing conflicts and the settings are the same as the default, # comment out the commands in this file. # # Move this file to: `~/.amethyst.yml` # In order to register changes restart Amethyst. # If you experience issues pulling in the changes you can also # quit Amethyst and run: `defaults delete com.amethyst.Amethyst.plist` # This removes the current preferences and causes Amethyst to restart # with default preferences and pull configs from this file. # layouts - Ordered list of layouts to use by layout key # (default tall, wide, fullscreen, and column). layouts: - bsp - tall # - fullscreen # - tall-right # - wide # - two-pane # - middle-wide - 3column-left # - 3column-middle # - 3column-right # - 4column-left # - 4column-right # - column # - row # - floating - widescreen-tall # - widescreen-tall-right # - bsp # First mod (default option + shift). mod1: - option - shift # - control # - command # Second mod (default option + shift + control). mod2: - option - shift - control # - command # Commands: # special key values # space # enter # up # right # down # left # special characters require quotes # '.' # ',' # Move to the next layout in the list. cycle-layout: mod: mod1 key: space # Move to the previous layout in the list. cycle-layout-backward: mod: mod2 key: space # Shrink the main pane by a percentage of the screen # dimension as defined by window-resize-step. # Note that not all layouts respond to this command. shrink-main: mod: mod1 key: h # Expand the main pane by a percentage of the screen dimension # as defined by window-resize-step.
