Full Changelog: v2.5.0...v2.5.1

v2.5.0

What's Changed

• Alt-Tab Revamp

  • Added lightweight text-based UI (alttab_ui_lite) as default, with option to re-enable thumbnail UI (config.alttab.thumbnails = true).
  • Alt-Tab UI now runs in a separate process for stability.
  • Improved submap handling and appearance defaults (smaller tile sizes, margins).

• Floating Window Navigation

  • New movefocus command to cycle focus between floating windows by direction (with wrapping).
  • Integrated into dynamic_bind as default for SUPER+Arrow keys in overview mode.

• Dynamic Bind Enhancements

  • Supports executing hyprfloat: internal commands (e.g. hyprfloat:snap).
  • Added overview mode with alternate binds when active.
  • Updated defaults to use hyprfloat: prefix for floating commands.

• Other Changes

  • togglefloat now applies class rules as well as workspace rules.
  • movemon retains focus on moved window.
  • Bumped hyprfloat to version 2.5.0.

Full Changelog: v2.0.1...v2.5.0

v2.0.1

What's Changed

• alttab:
  • Improved window sorting logic to prioritize windows on the current workspace and
    by focus history.
  • Refined the filtering of clients by class.
• alttab_ui:
  • Refactored preview capture to use a more efficient and robust multi-threaded
    approach, capturing directly to memory.
  • Improved error handling and resource cleanup.
• togglefloat:
  • Now prevents toggling float mode when overview mode is active.

Full Changelog: v2.0.0...v2.0.1

v2.0.0

What's Changed

This is a large change set, please review the new recommended configuration, bindings and rules.

Features

• dynamicbind command: A new command that allows you to run different commands for floating and tiling windows. This is
  useful for creating context-aware keybindings.
• status command: A new command that prints the status of workspaces and the current mode (e.g., "Overview"). This is
  designed for integration with status bars like Waybar.
• hyprfloat.conf: A new, separate configuration file for hyprfloat is now provided at src/config/hyprfloat.conf. This
  allows you to keep your hyprland.conf cleaner by sourcing the hyprfloat configuration.

Changes & Improvements

• togglefloat: The togglefloat command now only affects the windows on the current workspace, rather than all windows
  globally.
• overview: The overview command has been significantly refactored for better stability and maintainability. It now uses
  Hyprland's window tagging feature (tag:overview) to manage overview state, which is a more robust method.
• workspacegroup: The status argument for the workspacegroup command is now deprecated. Please use the new top-level
  status command instead.
• Configuration: The default configuration has been simplified. Many of the keybindings and window rules have been moved to
  the new hyprfloat.conf file to provide a cleaner and more organized setup.
• snap: The snap command will now only affect floating windows, ignoring windows in a tiling layout.

Documentation

• The README.md has been updated to reflect the new features, updated commands, and the new configuration file.

Bug Fixes

• Improved command argument validation.

Full Changelog: v1.0.6...v2.0.0

v1.0.6

What's Changed

Features

• add workspacegroup move UI for moving active window to another workspace group

Refactor

• use XDG_RUNTIME_DIR for temp files and socket
• change debug log filename (/tmp/hyprfloat-debug.log)
• update installer to use "latest" instead of "stable"

Full Changelog: v1.0.5...v1.0.6

v1.0.5

What's Changed

• Add search to ALT-Tab
• Misc cleanup

Full Changelog: v1.0.4...v1.0.5

v1.0.4

What's Changed

• Performance improvements, use socket instead of shell calls to hyprctl
• Add option to switch to specific workspacegroup

Full Changelog: v1.0.3...v1.0.4

v1.0.3

Changed

• Updated the "Tips and Tricks" section in README.md to show how workspace changes are synchronized across three monitors.
• Added a sample configuration for multi-monitor workspace groups in hyprland.conf.

Fixed

• Improved code formatting and organization in documentation.

Added

• Included a new configuration example for hyprfloat.config.lua in the documentation.

Enhancement

• In src/commands/workspacegroup.lua, when switching workspace groups, the active monitor is now automatically focused using dispatch focusmonitor.

v1.0.2

Features

• Workspace Groups: A new workspacegroup command allows users to group workspaces and cycle through them. This is particularly useful for multi-monitor setups. See the README for configuration details.
• Async alttab UI: The alttab window switcher now loads asynchronously, showing placeholder previews while generating window captures. This provides a much faster and more responsive user experience.
• install-config command: A new hyprfloat install-config command has been added to easily install the default configuration file.

Improvements

• alttab MRU logic: The Most Recently Used (MRU) logic for alttab has been refactored to use focusHistoryID for more reliable window switching.
• overview layout: Windows in the overview are now sorted by workspace and position for a more stable and predictable layout.
• togglefloat geometry: The togglefloat command now preserves window geometry when switching from tiling to floating mode.
• Configuration: The default configuration has been moved to src/config/default.conf.lua and is now merged with the user's configuration.

Bug Fixes

• Fixed a bug where togglefloat would not correctly toggle floating mode.
• Corrected the togglefloat dispatch to togglefloating.

Breaking Changes

• The workspaceset command has been removed and replaced by workspacegroup.
• The configuration file path has changed. Users will need to move their configuration to ~/.config/hypr/hyprfloat.config.lua. The new install-config command can be used to create a new default configuration.
