Off Topic Chit Chat - (Silliness factor 5)

I harass a few friends here that I’ve known for a few years in this and other Arch-based forums. But not for how they “identify” other than some of them are incredibly, incurably stupid. :rofl:

But I’m old and great-grandpas get a pass on just about everything. Right? Right? :wink:

P. S. You & me gonna get along just great. I share your hatred for nVidia. :snicker:

The philosophy here is very simple:

Treat others as you would like to be treated yourself.

Almost all users here are very civil and any rebuke from moderators is rarely necessary. In the rare cases where someone is trolling or making any inappropriate comments they are usually dealt with very swiftly by moderators here.

It is the rare exception these days that moderators need to correct innapropriate behaviour. Most of the bad apples have already been sorted out here and what is left is an exceptional group of members that treat all others with respect.

Didn’t know myself too!

The explanation is clear, but there is no practical way to use it. At least for me. I think if there was a way to set the scale of apps in pseudo, it would be great.

I think @Ankur can this explain.

It allows an application to be included in the tiling tree (i.e. be tiled with the other apps instead of a floating window), but still honor whatever window size the application is asking for.

For example, if you tile a web browser and a calculator next to each other (so they each take half of the display), the calculator will be huge and stretched-out looking. If you use pseudotile mode for the calculator, it will still participate in the tiling tree normally (i.e. take half the display in this example), but the application will appear in a normal-sized window.

It sort of presents like the application is “floating” within its tile, if that makes sense.

@BluishHumility Have already explained it quit well,
here is a small video showing how it is preserving height x width ratio aspect even when galculator is tiled :

If words aren’t enough for understanding then pictures might be :smiley:

Oooh amazing,… so its like for apps like Galculator which are scaled well with it. For me I tried using it on things like browsers, which just ends up making them looking weird or unusable.

Ooh, thanks… I think this is a more reliable explanation than the documentation.

It is your descision , to where to use it, if you will use it on browsers… Seriously, don’t use it on that :rofl:
