I want to turn URxvt into a drop down terminal, something similar to guake. but I want it to be a certain size. I set floatingmaximum and floatingminimum_size to the size I wanted, (1366x350) but obviously that turned even the popup dialogs into that size. Is there anyway to resize URxvt automatically without resizing all floating windows?

The key is to make a matcher that works. Have a look in the userguide at the for_window command.

Here is a nice solution for a drop down terminal.

I did not know you could use resize under the for_window command. that fixed my problem.
