Beginner's help

[tcison]

Please help a beginner's attempt to understand the app's capabilities more. I am looking for documentation, video or any and all tutorial material that explains/demonstrates the app's functions and some of the terms like contracting to edge vs expand to edge. I am using trial and error to experiment and learn, but I am getting frustrated with my progress. I have a 27 inch and a 4K 55 inch monitor that I am working with. One specific question I have... Is it possible to move a window from a region on one monitor to a specific region on another monitor with a recipe other than to cycle? Thanks for any help.

@tcison Have you seen our documentation website at all? It has tutorials, descriptions of most of the key terms we use. However, we haven't made video content yet.

You can create your own recipe to move a window to a specific region, for that you would really only need one command in the recipe: window:move (docs). To set it up, you should set Monitor to a specific monitor (e.g. 2 if doing it from the command line) and region should describe the position of the region you want it to move into, it can be as simple as top left or more complicated as 20%, 30% (which would pick the region beneath the 20%, 30% coordinate (x, y).

If you want to move the foreground window, you leave the Window option at its default, but you can also choose to move a specific window if you would like.

Thank you very much for the comprehensive response. I will give this a shot and contact you if I have any additional questions, but it looks like I have everything I need now. Thanks again. Tc
