Hi, Anselm recently suggested an idea to add a column capacity flag. A setting of 0 gives maximized clients, a small number is how many clients are visible (the rest are stacked), and a large number matches the current default behavior.
This got me thinking that you could do something similar for the number of columns in a tag. A tag-capacity setting of 1 would behave like wmii-3, placing new clients as a new row in the current column. A setting of 2 would place a new client in a new column if there was only a single existing column. And 3 or more would, of course, create new columns for clients until the set number of columns are reached. This would usually be set as a global default. That way, people running low resolutions could set this to 1 in general, and people with higher resolutions could set it to 2 or 3. Personally, I run 1280x1024, so I can fit two full-width clients side-by-side. When I start a second client in a tag, I almost always move it to a new column for more efficient use of space. A tag-capacity setting of 2 would automate this process. What does everyone think?
