stash

Store single-window overlays in named stashes.

Each stash name is a single slot. A stashed window can be shown as a pinned overlay on top of your current workspace and stays visible while you switch workspaces, including special workspaces.

Usage

bash
bind = $mainMod,       S, exec, pypr stash_toggle S
bind = $mainMod SHIFT, S, exec, pypr stash_send   S
bind = $mainMod,       C, exec, pypr stash_toggle C
bind = $mainMod SHIFT, C, exec, pypr stash_send   C

stash_send <name>:

  • sends the focused window into stash <name>
  • if <name> is already occupied, releases the old window to the current workspace and replaces it
  • if the focused window is already the shown stash window, releases it back to the current workspace

stash_toggle <name>:

  • shows the named stash as a pinned floating overlay
  • hides it back into its hidden special workspace

The first show uses the configured size and position. If preserve_aspect = true, later hide/show cycles keep the live size and position you last left the stash at.

Example

toml
[pyprland]
plugins = ["stash"]

[stash.S]
animation = ""
size = "24% 54%"
position = "76% 22%"
preserve_aspect = true

[stash.C]
animation = ""
size = "24% 54%"
position = "76% 22%"
preserve_aspect = true

Notes

  • animation is currently reserved and does not change behavior yet.
  • Stash windows are backed by hidden special:st-<name> workspaces when not shown.
  • During a clean pypr shutdown, stash windows are released back to the active workspace as a best effort cleanup.
