@@ -35,13 +35,25 @@ the `RULE` field is unchanged, but in the `WINDOW` field, you can put regexes
for multiple values like so:
```ini
-windowrulev2 = float,class:^(kitty)$,title:^(kitty)$
+windowrulev2 = float,class:(kitty),title:(kitty)
```
+{{< hint type=tip >}}
+In the case of dynamic window titles such as browser windows keep in mind how powerful regex is.
+
+for example a window rule of: `windowrule=opacity 0.3 override 0.3 override,title:(Zizaran - Twitch)(.*)$` will match
+*any* window that contains a string of "Zizaran - Twitch" before any other text. This could be multiple browser windows
+or other applications that contain the string for any reason.
+
+
+for the `windowrulev2 = float,class:(kitty),title:(kitty)` example, the `class:(kitty)` `WINDOW` field is what keeps the window rule
+specific to kitty terminals.
+{{< /hint >}}
+
For now, the supported fields are:
```ini
-class - class regex
+class - class regex
title - title regex
xwayland - 0/1
floating - 0/1
