Hyper: Window "decoration"?

Created on 30 Nov 2016  路  5Comments  路  Source: vercel/hyper

Hi, I am using i3wm. The latest Git version behaves a bit strange according to the window "decorations" (I am not a gui programmer, so I might lack some technical terms. I do not get decorations from i3 any more, instead it seems that hyper is drawing them itself. How can I get the old behaviour back? It is annoying, since hyper does not integrate well into my desktop any more... I do not see the splitmarker any more, the mouse pointer changes, when I touch the border and so on.

Three times gnome-terminal and one hyper instance.

Thanks @solomonbroadbent 馃憤 Let's close this. For anyone coming here with the same problem, install hyper-native-window-decoration and you're set.

Same thing here, with qtile wm.
Urxvt and Hyper on screenshot - orange border is appearing when window is active.

Also, when I used 0.x versions, it wouldn't draw the Minimize/Maximize/Close buttons neither the title bar. I would love to get this behaviour back.

The Minimize/Maximize/Close buttons can be disabled in the config file; the title bar AFAIK not. Since hyper does not integrate properly in tiling windows managers, I moved to mate-terminal for now.

As found in the reference Lindenk posted, the solution (at least for me) was to add the plugin: 'hyper-native-window-decoration' to .hyper.js configuration file.

As an alternative, if you're on i3wm and only want the border, append something like this to your ~/.config/i3/config:

# Hyper normally hides the border but we need it
for_window [class="Hyper"] border pixel 1
