Yabai: Rule to float all Preference Windows?

Created on 8 Oct 2019  路  2Comments  路  Source: koekeishiya/yabai

Hi, would it be possible to have a rule that matches all regular preference windows Apps spawn? The problem is that they don鈥檛 all have the same title, for example

ForkLift Preferences:

This would match all windows whose title ends in Preferences and make them float and topmost.

yabai -m rule --add title='Preferences$' manage=off topmost=on
