Suggestion: Automatically tile when opening window
Opened this issue · 2 comments
This extension is almost exactly what I am looking for: the same behavior on my ChromeOS Pixelbook when I open a new window: it automatically tiles the chrome windows vertically. I am running Lubuntu Linux (with sddm display manager). I am trying to add something to either chrome or linux that will automatically tile two windows side by side.
Since this extension is open source, I am hopeful I can add the automagic feature, triggered by opening a new window. Here we go!

Release "0.9" "works for me." I did remove the functionality of clicking the extension button.
My use case:
- I usually have one window open, filling my display
- When I open a second window, I always want the two windows to be tiled side-by-side (just like my Chromebook); (if I didn't, then I would open a new tab)
- I rarely have more than two browser windows open simultaneously
In my searching, I found many users who have multiple windows (multiple monitors!); this may not work well for them, because it automatically tiles with the creation of every new tab. If I could change two things to further enhance this, it would be:
- Only trigger on creation of new windows, not tabs
- Also trigger on window removal (destruction?)
This Chrome extension moves Chrome browser a small step closer to behaving like ChromeOS.
