Version: (using KDE 3.5.8) Installed from: SuSE RPMs OS: Linux It would be very useful the possibility of laying out windows side by side like "flank windows" in ms windows. When I right-clic on the desktop under the menu "window" You should implement this feature in addition to "reorder window" and "window cascade" thanks a lot and have a nice day!
What is 'flank windows'?
maybe I have a problem with the translation. I'm an italian user and I don't know how that function is called in english. In italian is "affianca finestre". I just opened the dictionary... thanks a lot 11 Feb 2008 14:01:21 -0000, Lubos Lunak <l.lunak@kde.org>: [bugs.kde.org quoted mail] <div>maybe I have a problem with the translation.

That still doesn't tell me what it is actually supposed to be.
Waiting to be explained what is actually asked for.
If I recall last time you opened windows XP, there was an option to "Cascade Windows" if you right clicked on the desktop. No one would actually want this feature because its useless; however, there was a second option; I don't remember what it does. It might have tiled the windows, windows 1.0 style (or for you open source people, dwn/wmii/ratpoison style; see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tiling_window_manager ). Of course, I'm not in a big hurry to have this feature implemented either... for an operating system called "Windows", its suprising that it has the worst window management of any modern operating system.
