Provide A Way to Exclude Certain Apps

Open akefirad opened this issue 1 year ago • 3 comments

If doesn't exist yet, is it possible to add a way to exclude/ignore certain applications. For example Scoot has two hidden windows that show up in the list.

Currently not supported. I record this as a feature suggestion.

LMK if you need a hand. (Disclaimer; I'm new to Lua, so not sure how much I can do 🙂)

If we want to remove some windows, we will have to change it here. https://github.com/oniatsu/HotSwitch-HS/blob/b8ccd9730f178c4d49d48a50a50e62639adaa5e8/lib/model/WindowModel.lua#L85-L116

It may be possible to exclude it generically by checking subrole, etc. If possible, I believe generic exclusion is a better approach.
