Add multiple window layouts

[ehzhang]

Add multiple window layouts for more content. (ex. main pane with sidebar)

From the screenshots in the README, I was expecting that I could chose to have a sidebar - am I right in assuming that isn't the case and this issue to add that functionality?

Thanks! Jon

Hey Jon,

Unfortunately while we had created the form UI for selecting multiple layout options, we've only implemented the single cell layout so far. The screenshots are from before we decided to comment out the sidebar option and "just ship it" :wink:

Any help implementing the two column layout would be an awesome contribution!

Thanks, Chris

Cool, just wanted to make sure I wasn't missing something since I saw it in the screenshots. :smile:

Not sure this is a critical feature- the main use case I see for greenscreen would be to point it at a custom internal URL and multiple screens could just as easily be implemented there rather than complicating the server code.

Agreed it's far from a critical but I would suggest updating the images as I assumed since it was displayed in the screenshots that it was possible and spent a while trying to figure it out before I stumbled on this thread. At the very least add a note under the screenshot to let people know that's not currently supported.

I see single-cell is passed through to the Channel for a fullscreen, where and how does chromecast handle this? Is 'single-cell' a built in sizing property option, and are there more? I was able to add back the option for main-screen with sidebar, but the implementation of it is lost on me.

Thanks. Any help would be great, and I will commit once I have found a solution.
