FRE: Configurable dynamic actions

[MarcinOrlowski]

Hi, I use 3x2 grid myself and I often would like some app to take 2x2 area while 1x2 remains for other apps (i.e. terminals etc). I got no experience writing kwin scripts yet, so this may be simply no doable but is there any way to get rid of all predefined actions and have them set up dynamically? One thing is that my shortcuts settings are featuring options for grids I do not care (i.e. 4x2) so that would clean them up a bit. But that's minor problem, as once you set it all up you do not care these settings. But I'd like to have more options as said: 3x2 (left/right), 2x3 (top/bottom), 1x3 (top/bottom). If that's not possible/east to be added dynamically, could you please add these actions?

Hi, Thank you for the feedback!

I agree that configurable shortcuts would be great! I'd also like to improve this aspect; in particular, I'm not too fond of the user experience with a second monitor in a vertical orientation (e.g., maybe introducing a horizontal/vertical symmetry in the shortcuts)

I'm not experienced in kwin scripts/UI stuff. I think that with a configuration file under ~/.config/ultrawidewindows it should be easily doable (even though it's a hacky solution).

At the moment, I don't have time to invest in this, but sooner or later it will have an overhaul (I still use this script daily)

As quick hack, I edited ~/.local/share/kwin/scripts/ultrawidewindows/contents/code/main.js and commented out all grids but 3x2. That's solves my "crowd" problem. Also I figured out that 3x2 (left/right) and other I requested are already there but with bit cryptic names like "Move window to fit down-left 2/3 width" so once I assigned shortcuts to these I am now pretty good. Till next update :)
