Click crosshair onto any X11 window to pin Always-on-Top with pushpin badge
A Linux X11 alternative to DeskPins. Independent open-source project, not affiliated with or endorsed by DeskPins.
Crosshair pointer grabbing, Always-on-Top (_NET_WM_STATE_ABOVE), and floating pushpin badge tracking operate on X11 and XWayland windows. Wayland-native windows cannot be intercepted by X11 pointer grabs, and Wayland-native titlebars may stack independently of external X11 badge windows.
FEATURES • Crosshair Pin Mode & Active Pins: enter X11 crosshair grab mode to click any desktop window and pin it Always-on-Top, or pin directly from the live X11 window table. • Live Floating Pushpin Titlebar Badges: 24x24 shaped Always-on-Top pushpin badges follow pinned windows as they move or resize; click any badge to unpin immediately. • Auto-Pin Wildcard & Regex Rules: persistent background matching on window title or WM_CLASS (Calculator, vlc, Terminal) automatically pins new matching windows. • Badge Appearance & Global Hotkey: customize pushpin colors (Red, Gold, Cyan, Emerald), top-right (dx, dy) offsets, max concurrent pins, and a global XGrabKey shortcut (default Ctrl+Alt+P).
