h1. Gravity\015\012\015\012{{>toc}}\015\012\015\012Each Gravity has got a number of Gravities which assign a certain placement on the screen.\015\012\015\012h2. Gravities\015\012\015\012Gravities are the subtle way to arrange clients. Each client has to be assigned to one Gravity and one of those Gravities. These Gravity 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 Gravities 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 gravity point.\015\012\015\012+Examples:+\015\012\015\012* TopLeft (x = 0, y = 0, h = 50, w = 50)\015\012 <pre>\015\012 +---+---+\015\012 | c | |\015\012 +---+ |\015\012 | |\015\012 +-------+\015\012 </pre>\015\012\015\012* Center (x=50, y = 50, h = 50, w = 50)\015\012 <pre>\015\012 +-------+\015\012 | +---+ |\015\012 | | c | |\015\012 | +---+ |\015\012 +-------+\015\012 </pre>\015\012\015\012h2. How you change Gravities\015\012\015\012h3. via [[config]]\015\012\015\012Check the default subtle.rb file, constant @GRAVITIES@. There's a simpler Gravities configuration implementation too: http://pastie.org/662640\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 rectangles.\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, :geometry => Int}@\015\012* a @Subtlext::Gravity@ object\015\012* a @Subtlext::Gravity@ object\015\012\015\012h3. via [[Subtler]]\015\012\015\012TODO
