Research direction

Start by locating the Dux shell's “edit window rule” UI and its Save button; the issue does not name a file or test. Add an Apply button beside Save so users can apply rule changes while keeping the editor open. Done when applying a rule leaves the window open and Save still closes it.

An "Apply" button next to "Save" button

Use Case

currently the only way to apply the window rule is to clikc "Save", which closes this window.
An "Apply" rule button would make it easier to tinker with different window rules and their various settings.
