Thought KDE did have one? Unless I installed an extension and forgot about it.
Super + T to configure
And works with Super + left click to move windows (no more hunting that pesky titlebar up top)
Edit: I'm on KDE 5 so things may be different, but I found it under Workspace Behaviour>Desktop Effects>Window Management
Yeah this is inbuilt (not an extension) and very similar to Windows fancy zones.
Meta as in Super?
You're right! Got my names mixed up, still dealing with Windows brainrot
Sorry, wasn’t ment to be a correction. Was making sure I was on the same page.
No apology necessary C: you helped improve the clarity of my initial comment, so thank-you!
Or playing in the same key as the rest of the band…..
It does, but in Plasma you can only snap a window to a single area. With FancyZones you can create a more detailed grid and hold a modifier key to make the window span multiple areas, so it's much more flexible than the fixed layout of KDE. For example you can make a 4x4 grid and choose to span a window across 4x1 or 1x4. That's impossible in Plasma (for now).
Yea that's my bad, misread your post. Hopefully some kind soul implements that soon!
Out of curiosity, what keeps you on Plasma versus a tiling WM? Been looking at them but not sure if it's for me.
I just can't get into them... I like being able to tile windows when I want to, but I find them too complicated to use. I like how Plasma already contains everything I need and I never have any problems with it. Personally I find the best implementation of tiling is in PopOS where you use a shortcut to activate and deactivate it. It's really the best of both worlds!
interesting, I'll have to check it out. Thanks
they talked about a specific functionality and they specifically said they wish kde's tiling had it. i can't check whether it does but the commenter clearly isn't unaware of the zones, they just want different functionality.
ah good catch, I missed that
