A plugin which provides focus animations for us borderless folks, originally inspired by flashfocus! Modified to work with the latest Hyprland, to support hyprpm as well as some other improvements.

Animations:

flash

shrink

Installation:

Instructions based on the official wiki

hyprpm add https://github.com/daxisunder/hyprfocus
hyprpm enable hyprfocus

Getting started:

To start using hyprfocus, add this to your hyprland config:

plugin {
  hyprfocus {
    enabled = yes
    animate_floating = no
    animate_workspacechange = no
    focus_animation = flash
      # Beziers for focus animations
    bezier = bezIn, 0.5, 0.0, 1.0, 0.5
    bezier = bezOut, 0.0, 0.5, 0.5, 1.0
    bezier = overshot, 0.05, 0.9, 0.1, 1.05
    bezier = smoothOut, 0.36, 0, 0.66, -0.56
    bezier = smoothIn, 0.25, 1, 0.5, 1
    bezier = realsmooth, 0.28, 0.29, 0.69, 1.08
    bezier = easeInOutBack, 0.68, -0.6, 0.32, 1.6
      # Flash settings
    flash {
      flash_opacity = 0.7
      in_bezier = bezIn
      in_speed = 0.5
      out_bezier = bezOut
      out_speed = 3
    }
      # Shrink settings
    shrink {
      shrink_percentage = 0.99
      in_bezier = easeInOutBack
      in_speed = 1.5
      out_bezier = easeInOutBack
      out_speed = 3
    }
  }
}

Plugin configuration:

enabled (yes/no) -> enable or disable the plugin

focus_animation (flash/shrink/none) -> animation for keyboard-driven focus

animate_workspacechange (yes/no) -> Whether to trigger the focus animation when changing workspaces

animate_floating (yes/no) -> Whether to trigger the focus animation for floating windows

Animations configuration:

Animations can be configured within the plugin scope with the following syntax:

plugin {
    hyprfocus {
        <animation> {

        }
    }
}

Shared animation variables:

in_bezier (bezier) -> bezier curve towards the animation apex

out_bezier (bezier) -> bezier curve towards the default window state

in_speed (float) -> speed for the 'in' bezier

out_speed (float) -> speed for the 'out' bezier

Flash:

flash_opacity (float) -> opacity to during the flash's apex

Shrink:

shrink_percentage (float) -> the amount a window has shrunk during the animation's apex

Dispatching:

Hyprfocus can also flash the currently focused window through the animatefocused dispatcher:

bind = $mod, space, animatefocused
