Mouse & Gestures

Mouse Bindings

OXWM uses the modifier key (set with oxwm.set_modkey()) for mouse actions.

Setting the Modifier

oxwm.set_modkey("Mod4")  -- Super/Windows key
-- or
oxwm.set_modkey("Mod1")  -- Alt key

Focus Follows Mouse

By default, OXWM uses focus-follows-mouse: hovering over a window focuses it.

Tag Clicking

Click on tags in the status bar to switch to that tag.
