Add option to save layouts
It'll be very useful to have an option to automatically restore last layout on reboot.
When doing development I often have the same four or more windows open, in the same layout. It would be useful to be able to save a session and quickly restore any required layout for a given task or set of tasks. Obviously this can be hacked together via scripts, but it does seem like natural extension of functionality for a tiling compositor that handles window layout. P.S: Thank you for your excellent work so far. Hyprland on wayland is terrific :-)
yes this would be very useful, even though tmux come to complement in its way, but why bother to configure another window navigating feature in it?
I just assumed this was available when I installed Hyprland and I must say...disappointed that it is not available, and a pull request to actually add it was rejected...
yo i'd love this, having all my windows opening with certain sizes in certain positions in certain workspaces would be amazing. i'd be great if we could either take a snapshot and bind that to a key or something. or have hyprland load the last used layout on startup
As a workaround, you can autostart desired programs. Here is an example from my config.
exec-once=[workspace 1 silent] $browser & sleep 4; $clock & sleep 1; $filemanager & $telegram &
Also, I see several pull requests, relevant to this issue, were declined, so I guess this function isn't going to be implemented. Should the issue be closed?

i have programs executed on startup. what we want is the ability to set all applications to load in a predefined location, size and layout
