Enhancement: Tiles should be resizable via mouse #82

Closed roteiro closed 12 years ago

roteiro commented 12 years ago

At the moment, if you want to resize a window and "fit" the others via mouse, you have to resize the window by drawing the window edges to the desired size and then "super+shift+p" to fit the other windows (I"m referring to the last moves in the shellshape demo video). In Bluetile it was possible to do this in a single action. drawing the edges between the different windows resulted in resizing of all affected tiles. See http://vimeo.com/6661713 from 0:50.

I'd like to see that functionality in shellshape as well.

I think this duplicates #43, do you agree?

The main problem is that if this were implemented, it wouldn't be obvious how to implement the current behaviour - you'd have to adjust the window tiles and then "undo" the tile-adjustment in the case where it wasn't wanted.

Oh, my bad, did not see #43. I'll add my thoughts there.
