Return window positions/sizes upon tiling exit

[coffandro]

(1) Description

When I switch from floating mode to tiling mode and back, my windows keep being in the tiling position and don't return, this is extremely annoying as I often switch between the states so I would like it to return them to the position and sizes from before tiling.

My solution would be to try and save window positions before tiling them somehow and then returning them upon tiling exit.

(2) Alternatives I've considered

This is a pretty basic missing feature so I do not see other alternatives, maybe it should be behind a setting of some kind since it can be kinda unstable.

Hi there, if the window came from another workspace. Does it return on that workspace again?

[coffandro]

It dosen't right now but that would possibly be a part of my idea, yeah

[jmmaranan]

Sorry - no, it is complicated to track where the windows are before.

[coffandro]

That makes sense, have a nice day otherwise

Yeah - I am thinking to make the next major version of Forge to keep track of windows a little bit differently.
