Fully featured tilling window managers (like DEs) for lazy people
Fully featured tilling window managers (like DEs) for lazy people
I love WMs but sometimes I wish there was also a fully featured WM (like a DE) for lazy people.
Because sometimes I can't be bothered customizing the configs and I would just rather have a slightly more bloated setup but with faster customization and some features out of the box without to much researching.
But in my perspective, in terms of work flow WMs are just the way to compute efficiently.
Do you have any suggestions of projects that might be out there that do fill this niche?
You're viewing a single thread.
In KDE Plasma, Super + T brings up a built in tiling feature. It's super basic, but allows you to set static window snap zones on any display.
Each zone can be split horizontally or vertically, and you can adjust the zone-gaps to the exact pixel you want.
It's not dynamic as far as I know, but for me it's all I need.
Once you go back into regular desktop mode, you can use the zone snaps by holding shift while you drag a window. Releasing the window while holding shift will snap the window into the current snap zone it's closest to.
I came here to make a similar comment. In KDE just use.. I could swear it was ctrl+alt+arrow key but a quick search tells me it's meta+arrow key (currently on my phone) to tile windows if I want. Quarter or half sceen tiling works for me so I'm content with that. OP didn't specifically say dynamic tiling so perhaps one of these methods will be sufficient for OP?
I'll check out that tiling feature mentioned above, I wasn't aware of it and am curious!
