Gravity\015\012\015\012{{>toc}}\015\012\015\012Each Gravity has got a number of GravityModes which assign a certain placement on the screen.\015\012\015\012h2. GravityModes\015\012\015\012GravityModes are the subtle way to arrange clients. Each client has to be assigned to one Gravity and one of those GravityModes. These GravityModes are defined by a quadtuple x | y | width | height where x and y are the screen position in percent from the top left, x being down and y being left. Width and Height are the sizes of the client relative to the screen size.\015\012\015\012h2. How GravitiyModes are applied\015\012\015\012We took the intuitive approach, as clients are sized to w and h and the center is being 'pulled' to the GravityPoint.\015\012\015\012+Examples:+\015\012\015\012* TopLeft (x = 0, y = 0, h = 50, w = 50)\015\012

\015\012\015\012h2. How you change Gravities\015\012\015\012h3. via subtle.rb\015\012\015\012Check the default subtle.rb file, constant GRAVITIES.\015\012\015\012h3. via Grabs\015\012\015\012You can set a Gravity by default by pressing Super and the numlock key in direction you desire your window to be. Pressing again the same Grab will result in cycling through the modes.\015\012\015\012h3. via Subtlext\015\012\015\012You can set the Gravity via client.gravity = object, where object may be:\015\012* an Integer (Gravity ID)\015\012* a Hash {:gravity => Int, :mode => Int}\015\012* a Subtlext::Gravity object\015\012* a Subtlext::GravityMode object\015\012\015\012h3. via subtler\015\012\015\012TODO\015\012\015\012\015\012{{tocnavi(subtle,Tags,Quickstart,Quickstart)}}
