automatic scheme defaults to longest_side. if you have an ultrawide monitor you probably have two windows wider then taller before the second split.

@ortango I am using a basic 1080p monitor.
from bspwm.
The default automatic_scheme
has always longest_side
since automatic schemes have been configurable, nothing has changed. 385f73e
bspwm
splits on the longest side of the focused (insertion) node.
If you have resided the left window, and inserted a new window while it was more wide than tall, you will get a vertical split instead of a horizontal split.
If you don't want that and you want to alternate vertical and horizontal splits, simply change the automatic_scheme
setting to alternate
instead of longest_side
:
bspc config automatic_scheme alternate
That is also the automatic scheme I personally use.

@emanuele6 Thank you very much for the explanation. Not sure how I couldn't find this option in the documentation, but that makes it very clear. I remember it being like this default, but that was before 2018, so that is likely where my confusion comes from. Closing issue as it is now resolved.
