I had written down some ideas to improve Stack&Tile in
https://dev.haiku-os.org/ticket/15589,
I have revised it a bit below and would like some feedback if it makes sense to
implement
like this, or which part would make less sense (or potentially conflicts with
something
else)
Some improvements to Stack & Tile to make especially Tiling more usefull:
* Add super+F shortcut to fullscreen a windowstack+tiling arangement
* Add super+M as a maximize window shortcut (i.e available screenspace next to
Deskbar,
with title bard visible)
* Add super+mouse1 as an alternative to ctrl+cmd+mouse1
* Add super+mouse2 as an alternative to ctrl+cmd+mouse2
* Change super+UP to switch between members of a stack
* Change super+Down to switch between members of a stack
(Is the current way usefull? it is basically the same as alt-tab, but less
usefull?)
* Change the behaviour of resizing a member of a tiled arangement to modify the
split
between the windows for a shared border, instead of resizing the first member
and moving
the second
(So, kind of like a Splitter works)
I would also like to rework the window resizing rules for stacks a bit, they
are quite
confusing in that stacks do not allow some resizing actions, but windows can be
unstacked
and then resized and stacked back, and the size is now okay.
