Automatic resizing of other windows?

Open tmigone opened this issue 2 years ago • 4 comments

Hey, fantastic tool, it's pretty much perfect for me except for one small detail which I can't find a workaround.

When resizing a window with the "Larger", "Smaller" shortcuts the window being resized goes over/overlapps with any other windows it collides with. I'm used to Amethyst where resizing a pane would automatically resize the other in the opposite direction to keep them from overlapping. Is there any way to achieve something similar with rectangle?

For example,

I have window A taking 2/3 of screen width, and window B taking 1/3/. If I change the size of window B to 2/3 it works, but A is still 2/3 instead of being reduced to 1/3.

Thanks for the feedback.

In v3, I added the foundation for this feature, with a lot of logic for determining which windows are adjacent to a window being adjusted. I just haven't quite gotten to this part of it yet. Hopefully soon!

Awesome to know this is in the radar. Will keep an eye out, thanks for the awesome product.

On this topic, it would also be really great to have support across apps. I had the case today with the zoom and figma apps arranged 50/50, and I wanted to give more space to figma.
