## Dwindle Layout
The Dwindle layout arranges windows as a binary tree of recursive splits. Each new window splits the focused window's container, producing a spiral-like tiling.
### Configuration
| Setting | Default | Description |
| :--- | :--- | :--- |
| `dwindle_split_ratio` | `0.5` | Ratio used for new splits (`0.05`–`0.95`). |
| `dwindle_smart_split` | `0` | Pick the split axis from the cursor's position inside the focused window. The new window appears on the cursor's side. |
| `dwindle_hsplit` | `0` | Side-by-side splits: where the new window goes. `0` = follow cursor, `1` = right, `2` = left. |
| `dwindle_vsplit` | `0` | Top/bottom splits: where the new window goes. `0` = follow cursor, `1` = below, `2` = above. |
| `dwindle_preserve_split` | `0` | Keep the sibling's split orientation when a window is closed. |
| `dwindle_smart_resize` | `0` | When dragging to resize, move the split toward the cursor regardless of which side was grabbed. |
| `dwindle_drop_simple_split` | `1` | Drag-to-tile drop preview. `1` = 2-zone preview matching `dwindle_split_ratio`, `0` = 4-quadrant preview. |

## Switching Layouts
You can switch layouts dynamically or set a default for specific tags using [Tag Rules](/docs/window-management/rules#tag-rules).
