Steps to reproduce

There used to be an option to make a window span multiple zones via Ctrl + Win + Alt + Left/Right Arrow. I can't find it on the new version. Or it just stopped working for some reason.

Is it missing on purpose? any Alternative?

It can work only with relative position window moving. Do you have this option set? /needinfo

@SeraphimaZykova I had the "Override Windows Snap" on but with the "Zone index" move settings. I now changed it to "Relative Position" and it works.

I think this still should be treated as it is very unclear and nonintuitive. The UI should have some indication that the shortcut is available.

Thanks!
