</h1><div class="doc"><p>To use this module, add the following import to <code>~/.xmonad/xmonad.hs</code>:
</p><pre> import XMonad.Layout.LimitWindows
</pre><pre> myLayout = limitWindows 6 $ Tall 1 0.03 0.5 ||| Full ||| RandomOtherLayout...
main = xmonad defaultConfig { layoutHook = myLayout }
</pre><p>You may also be interested in dynamically changing the number dynamically,
by binding keys to the <code><a href="XMonad-Layout-LimitWindows.html#v:increaseLimit">increaseLimit</a></code>, <code><a href="XMonad-Layout-LimitWindows.html#v:decreaseLimit">decreaseLimit</a></code>, or <code><a href="XMonad-Layout-LimitWindows.html#v:setLimit">setLimit</a></code>
actions.
</p><p>For detailed instructions on editing your key bindings, see
<a href="XMonad-Doc-Extending.html#Editing_key_bindings">XMonad.Doc.Extending</a>.
</p><p>See also <code><a href="XMonad-Layout-BoringWindows.html#v:boringAuto">boringAuto</a></code> for keybindings that skip
the hidden windows.
