For at opnå følgende skal der laves to regler:
- A rule for Kopete Chat and
- A rule for Kopete
The Kopete Chat rule's matching-criteria is more restrictive than the Kopete rule as it needs to match a specific Window Role: the chat window. Due to rule evaluation processing, the Kopete Chat rule must precede the Kopete rule in the KWin Rule list for Kopete.

Multiple Rules per Application
Thunderbird has several different child windows. This example:
- Pin Thunderbird's main window on Virtual Desktop 1 with a specific size and location on the desktop.
- Allow the Thunderbird composer window to reside on any desktop and when activated, force focus and pop it to the top of all windows.
- Pop the Thunderbird reminder to the top and do not give it focus so it isn't inadvertently dismissed.
Each rule's matching criteria is sufficiently restrictive so their order within the main KWin window is not important to affect rule evaluation.
