Quake Mode Gnome Shell Extension

A fork from the awesome repsac-by and their gnome-shell-extension-quake-mode to add more features.

quake-mode-shortcuts.mp4

Installation

git clone https://github.com/initiateit/quake-mode-shortcuts.git

cd quake-mode-shortcuts

gnome-extensions pack quake-mode-initiateit@repsac-by.github.com --extra-source={quakemodeapp,indicator,util}.js

gnome-extensions install quake-mode-initiateit@repsac-by.github.com.shell-extension.zip

Usage

Go to GNOME Extensions or Extension Manager and open the settings for quake-mode. Switch over to the accelerators tab and define a shortcut key and an application it should open. Use that key to toggle quake-mode for your chosen app.

Window Resize & Monitor Shortcuts

This fork adds keyboard shortcuts to resize and move the quake-mode window:

  • Ctrl + Up: Increase window height
  • Ctrl + Down: Decrease window height
  • Ctrl + Right: Increase window width
  • Ctrl + Left: Decrease window width
  • Ctrl + Shift + Left/Right: Move the window to the previous or next monitor

You can now also:

  • Set which direction each window animates from ie left, right, top, bottom
  • Each window will resize independently and remember its sizes

Adds the ability to vertically center the starting position of the app.

Known Issues

Due to the implementation of some tricks of initial placement of the window in the desired location on the screen and suppression of the initial animation with replacement of its own, it may not always work as expected. Things may animate a little fudgey or glitchy.
