Using newest GNOME
I want windows of newly opened programs to either go to to to the half left, or half right of the screen when opened, instead of opening in a random place/middle of the screen not maximized
is it possible ?
Sounds like you want a tiling window manager, I like i3-gaps.
I’ve tried tiling WM but they are not for me
idk about gnome but this sounds like you should look into tiling window managers
Have you tried the tiling assistant or gtile extensions? Not quite the same as a regular tiling window manager, but tiling assistant works pretty we’ll for just snapping and moving windows.
gtile might be what I was looking for, ty
For Gnome i use PaperVM as tiling manager. Easy to use and easy to install, just look at the github readme.
Well I don’t think the philosophy of Gnome is to really have a lot of different windows in the same workspace.
The idea would be to move them to a different workspace so that you can really focus on what you’re doing.
That being said, if you have a big screen, I’d understand why you want to do that.
Yeah I use workspaces too, it’s just that each of them have 2 windows placed besides each other as if each were a “normal sized” display
