Maximize to another display. #8

I don't see any feature requests or enhancements, so I dare to post one: make ability to move a window which became fullscreened to another displaying device (not workspace). This display would be selectable from setting (if there is more than two).

When:

browsing the net and finding a video and hitting F11 or
need to make fullscreen dolphin, or
making presentation (powerPoint, images, pdfs, etc.)

the script sends window to that other screen (TV, projector, other room).

You already posted one :) See #5.

As I said, this is pretty much out of the scope of this project, which is simply a small script to mimic the OSX behavior. However, I can see why this may be helpful in some cases. This time I'll leave this open, though. So if anyone wants to implement it, they are welcome to submit a PR.

Aahh yes..... I'm embarrassed now 😅... sorry. Someone forked your work few years ago and made me confused. His script resembled exact functionality as yours and abandoned it likely, so I thought there is space for this idea. Thanks for deeper explanation of your goals and vision.

Close as it's unlikely this ever gets implemented.
