Hi,

I run yabai version 7.1.8 on MacOS 15.3.1 and I have observed for some time (at least a year) that yabai does not always tilt new applications. I cannot see a pattern, it seems pretty much random but I would say ~20% of applications I open are not tilted. Simply closing the application and restarting it (sometimes multiple times) always fixes the issue.

My config file:

# bsp, stack or float
yabai -m config layout bsp

# When a window is splitted horizontally, the new one goes to the bottom (or right with vertical
# split)
yabai -m config window_placement second_child


# padding/gaps
yabai -m config top_padding 12
yabai -m config bottom_padding 12
yabai -m config left_padding 12
yabai -m config right_padding 12
yabai -m config window_gap 12


# mouse settings

# place mouse in focused windows
yabai -m config mouse_follows_focus on

yabai -m config mouse_modifier alt

# left click + alt = drag windows
yabai -m config mouse_action1 move

# right click + alt = resize windows
yabai -m config mouse_action2 resize

# move a windows in the middle of another windows to swap them
yabai -m mouse_drop_action swap

# Disaple specific apps (not managed by yabai)
yabai -m rule --add app="^System Settings$" manage=off
