I don't think there is anything I can do on my end.
If @emvaized you would like to add support for this in your script, I would suggest introducing a (possibly configurable) tolerance threshold up to which windows slightly differing from the tile geometry would still be considered tiled, so that windows trigger the assistant even when a little gapped:
/// Detect if window was snapped
/// left/right halves
if (width === halfScreenWidth && height == currentScreenHeight && dy === maxArea.y)
=>
const threshold = 15;
...
if (Math.abs(width - halfScreenWidth) <= threshold && Math.abs(height - currentScreenHeight) <= threshold && Math.abs(dy - maxArea.y) <= threshold)
Cool extension by the way, will give it a try, I have been looking for something like this for a long time.
Thanks for your suggestion!
I've just tried rewriting a few bits of code using the proposed method, separated in isEqual()
function, but it somehow doesn't work for all layouts, as well as causes a lot of false detections and misbehavior. I think it's because the current code relies too much on precise geometry calculations.
I'll try to revisit it later with deeper investigation on what exactly goes wrong
Among many other scripts to customize KDE, there is a very recent one called KDE Snap Assist that helps to preview open windows to place them next to others in the style of Windows.
My problem is that if I try to use that script specifically in conjunction with Tile-gaps, KDE Snap Assist stops working.
I honestly know it's not your responsibility to fix other people's bugs and if I had programming skills I'd help with this, but I don't know if this is a tile-gaps bug or a KDE Snap Assist bug, I can also open an issue on that other guy's github script
