Tiling-Assistant doesn't handle display resolution changes

[rungitringit]

Describe the bug Hello, thanks so much for Tiling-Assistant. I can't live without it! I work with virtual desktops (Currently Ubuntu 22.04 with v36) but unfortunately have different sized monitors at home and work. When I open a virtual desktop after a change of display resolution and try to snap to a corner or use the keyboard shorcut Tiling-Assistant tries two different window sizes between attempts but rarely gets it right. I usually have to minimise all windows, snap one to 50% of the screen and then try to re-tile the others to quarters manually. After that Tiling-Assistant works as expected for the rest of the day, until I change monitors again.

Not sure if I'm expecting too much - please let me know if this is a feature request instead!

Steps To Reproduce

• Arrange Windows to corners.
• Change display resolution
• Try to use shortcut keys or snap corners to arrange windows back to new corners - it usually fails

System Info:

• Distro (incl. version): Ubuntu 22.04
• GNOME Shell version: 42.9-0ubuntu2
• Extension version and from where (e. g. EGO, main branch...): v36
• XOrg/Wayland: 1:7.7+23ubuntu2 (Amazon WorkSpaces seem to be using X11 not Wayland :( )

I just read https://github.com/Leleat/Tiling-Assistant/issues/61 and it is likely the problem I have may relate to: Moving tiled windows across monitors doesn't work, if the size of the tiled window is way too big for the new monitor. A workaround is to untile the window before moving it to a new monitor. if so this may not be fixable.

Currently Tiling Assistant doesn't handle resolution changes at all but I want to implement it (some day when I got the time).

(The limitiation you mentioned probably doesn't affect this since that is about manually moving windows to new monitors.)
