Hey, would making a custom keybind work for this? Or are you looking for something less planned, where you'd want to decide at the time?

Hi, prefer decide at the time. Though custom preset also another nice feature!

I would also appreciate an on-demand grid option. I think the gnome extension tactile is great because of the keyboard support and preview you can quickly hit a couple keys to fill an on-demand section of the grid. https://gitlab.com/lundal/tactile

Hey there! Sorry for the late response. After giving it some thought, we’ve decided this isn’t a planned feature. Loop’s main goal is to provide a seamless window management experience through its radial menu and keyboard shortcuts, rather than introducing lesser-known methods.

There have been exceptions, like window dragging, but those were added because of their strong popularity on other operating systems.

Adding more alternative methods would also increase the potential for bugs and complexity, and with limited development time available, we have to stay focused on the core experience.

Thanks for understanding!
