Multiple zones spanning across monitors #35581

Open ROBCON-Software opened 1 week ago

ROBCON-Software commented 1 week ago

Description of the new feature / enhancement

We should be able to span window across multiple zones but across multiple monitors treated like separate ones. I have layout which has all monitors divided into exact quarters - and want add more zones from second one after I have filled the first one all 4 zones but need more width but not like now when all monitors are treated like one rectangle splitted...

Scenario when this would be used?

For example very wide application use, or for example teamviewer looking on dual monitor setup with all monitors enabled in one window - then I'm able to quickly arrange this window with 2 remote monitors to 2 of my monitors with same resolution and this leads to nice showing of all information from two remote monitors on my physical monitors - also the edge of both physical monitors are like split line between two remote screens

Supporting information

here the printscreens joined to view quickly the idea... :-)Image

My feature is not the same like that it work now. The feature what is actually working makes one big rectangle from all monitors - and the layout is applied to that area. And that is not what I have simulated in My screenshots collage. Simply to say - I want to expand the number of added zones by more zones from second or third monitor next to first one. For example two monitors with 4 equal zones - and I create area of 6 of them = 4 on monitor 1, 2 from monitor 2. total 6. Or I begin on first monitor at left half (2 zones) and add 4 zones from nonitor 2.
