FancyZones: Select custom shortcut to span a window across multiple zones

Open Kani3D opened this issue 1 year ago • 1 comments

Description of the new feature / enhancement

Right now, we have the option to select the secondary mouse button to trigger the zoneactivation - which is awesome. You can drag a window to a specific zone or right between them. But you can also hold "Ctrl" and span it across multiple zones. For a maximum efficient usage of the feature i'd love to suggest the following enhancements:

Click secondary mousebutton = trigger the zoneactivation Hold secondary mousebutton = trigger the zoneactivation and (simulate holding "Ctrl") to span it across multiple zones

If not possible, a custom shortcut for either would be awesome.

Thanks in advance for the effort.

Scenario when this would be used?

I'd like to enhance the accessibility of this awesome tool. By doing both functions with the mouse it feels much more natural in my opinion.

I agree, it would be more natural to hold down the secondary button and drag the window across multiple zones, and it would also reduce the number of actions required. This shouldn't conflict with the existing behaviour and it would be possible to have both enabled at the same time.
