Keep aspect ratio when resizing window removed in 0.55 Lua config?

[jemabaris]

With Hyprlang I could simply add the '1' keyword to constrain resizing a window with the mouse to it's initial aspect ratio:

bindm = $mainMod ALT, mouse:273, resizewindow 1

I have tried all sorts of things to replicate this in Lua but couldn't make it work.
I also couldn't find anything about that in the wiki.
So is keep aspect ratio on resize removed, was I too blind to find it in the wiki, or is it a bug?

Yeah seems like code is still there but impossible to access from the lua api atm.

I made a little workaround using props for now (changed to your bind):

-- Resize while keeping aspect ratio (temporarily)
hl.bind(mainMod .. " + ALT + mouse:273", function ()
  hl.dispatch(hl.dsp.window.set_prop({ prop = "keep_aspect_ratio", value = "1" }))
  hl.dispatch(hl.dsp.window.resize())
end, { mouse = true })
hl.bind(mainMod .. " + ALT + mouse:273", hl.dsp.window.set_prop({ prop = "keep_aspect_ratio", value = "false" }), { release = true, mouse = true })

No idea if some of the {mouse = true} are actually needed, but works as is

Nice, I will yank that for now, until a better solution is available :)

Very late (because my dumbass kept fucking up with the implementation/tests lmfao), but hyprland-git now supports (will be available in 0.55.4 if everything goes well) resizing windows with aspect ratio parameters like so:

-- Normal resize (respects `keep_aspect_ratio` prop)
hl.bind(mainMod .. " + ALT + mouse:273", hl.dsp.window.resize(), { mouse = true })
-- Force aspect ratio (ignores `keep_aspect_ratio` prop)
hl.bind(mainMod .. " + ALT + mouse:273", hl.dsp.window.resize({ keep_aspect_ratio = true }), { mouse = true })
-- Force NO aspect ratio (ignores `keep_aspect_ratio` prop)
hl.bind(mainMod .. " + ALT + mouse:273", hl.dsp.window.resize({ keep_aspect_ratio = false }), { mouse = true })

P.S.: I HATE NVIDIA, I had to install nouveau on a second computer because the open-source AND proprietary are soooo bad, it even literally kills itself...

The wiki is versioned:

• https://wiki.hypr.land/version-selector/

Use the same version of the wiki as your hyprland version or use git of both.

Probably also my fault a bit, i DID say that it might be available in 0.55.4, but those were just backport fixes... oopsie

Hi @jemabaris, have you tried with the latest releases from v0.56.x containing commit a80e89f?
