Vaela 1.1.3

Vaela 1.1.3 keeps oversized windows visible on multi-monitor setups and stops windows from growing past the screen.

What's fixed

• Scrollable: wide columns no longer vanish. On a setup with several monitors, a column wider than its monitor, or one peeking past the edge, now shows up to the edge of its own monitor and is cut off there. It no longer disappears or spills onto the next monitor. A new KWin effect, Vaela monitor edges (vaelaclip), draws each tiled window only on its own monitor.
• Clicks stay on the monitor you're using. Clicks and scrolling on a monitor go to that monitor's own windows, never to the unseen part of a window reaching over from the next one.
• Widening stops at the screen. Widening or growing a window that Vaela doesn't tile (in Float mode, or on a monitor Vaela doesn't run on) stops at the monitor's size inside the gaps, and the window stays on that monitor. Tiled windows already stop at the edge of the screen.

Known limitation: a screenshot of the whole desktop at once (Spectacle's Entire Desktop) still shows Scrollable columns reaching over a neighbouring monitor. Screenshots of a single monitor show it as it looks.

Requirements

• Fedora 44 or 45, x86_64, with current updates: both releases ship KWin 6.7.5, and the RPM requires exactly that version.
• Check your release with rpm -E %fedora, then pick the matching file below.

Install

Fedora Atomic (Bazzite, Kinoite, Silverblue), Fedora 45:

rpm-ostree install ./vaela-desktop-1.1.3-1.fc45.x86_64.rpm

Upgrading from an earlier Vaela RPM:

rpm-ostree install --uninstall vaela-desktop ./vaela-desktop-1.1.3-1.fc45.x86_64.rpm

Fedora Workstation:

sudo dnf install ./vaela-desktop-1.1.3-1.fc45.x86_64.rpm

On Fedora 44, use the fc44 file instead. Log out and choose Vaela at the login screen.
