Thank you. That's a good idea.

I would be cool, if the original author of Krohnkite PR (@winiciuscota) would make a pull request here.

I have no idea whether this is possible, but it would be fantastic if the user could select a default layout per physical monitor. Even better if the user could also select a default rotation and number of masters per monitor.

My use case: I have two monitors, one horizontal and one vertical. While the default vertical master-stack layout works well on the horizontal monitor, it is not practical on the vertical monitor. I find myself having to manually switch the layout on the vertical monitor each time I log in, for each of my virtual desktops.

it is not possible due to QML do not allow I/O operation. Cannot save in a file to remember layouts.

Can the option be added to the "Windows Layouts" options screen? Currently it list all the existing layouts for you to enable them. We could add a new option for "default layout". Alternatively we could add an option for default layout per screen/activity.
