Yes, i3 works very well with multiple monitors. I use my notebook in three different configurations, standalone, dual (with a large external monitor) and clone (hdmi same as screen). i3 does layout to use the whole screen, partitioning as necessary. In my dual configuration, each screen is managed separately. You can pair screens independently, one on the notebook and one on the external display. You can reconfigure between the two using xrandr.

Would you mind sharing your i3-config files?
Hi,
not at all. config file taken from /home/dom0user/.config/i3/config
The only line I changed from the default setup is:
# start dmenu (a program launcher)
bindsym $mod+d exec --no-startup-id i3-dmenu-desktop --dmenu="dmenu -i -nb #d2d2d2
-nf #00 -sb #63a0ff"
where I added the "-i" option.
I also added the /usr/bin/qubes-i3status bash script.
I changed
local qubes=$(qvm-ls 2>/dev/null | grep ' \* ' | wc -l)
to
local qubes=$(qvm-ls 2>/dev/null | grep 'Running ' | wc -l)
and
local disk=`df -h / | tail -n 1 | awk '{print $4}'`
to
local disk=`sudo lvs --noheadings -o lv_size,data_percent /dev/mapper/qubes_dom0-pool00 |
perl -pe 's/\s*([0-9.]+)([a-zA-Z]*)\s+([0-9.]+).*/sprintf("%.1f%s", ($1 * (100

[qubes-users] Re: i3
Apparently, the configuration at the bottom of https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/i3/ are unnecessary if you install i3-settings-qubes. You should do that before running i3, if you haven't remove .config/i3 in dom0 and then rerun. In addition to customizing terminal generation, and fixing up the scripts, it also provides a qubes specific status bar. I'm not a big fan of dmenu. I did build a mode switch ($mod+p) for starting programs in various VMs; probably build another mode switch for starting a terminal in various VMs. I used an external monitor in addition to notebook screen so I created an extra 10 workspace (using the function keys). -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.

I'm not sure of the official answer needless to say, but there's a few ways in which it could be done. a) presumably in dom0 as that's where i3 is b) depends how you want to run it, systemd unit or profile script? c) same as b 2. You use demenu to launch apps? It's typically bound to $mod+d by default. 3. By starting an application from dmenu, it will start the vm.

I would share mine but it's pretty much the default. There's not really much to tinker with in i3 because it's pretty headless.
