Currently, if middle button and right button are used to maximize the window vertically or horizontally. It's been like this for many many years.

Hi Vlad,
I'm not sure if maximize horizontally/vertically is usable case. Interesting how many users use this feature.
Maybe good solution is option to enable that. In ideal will be nice to configure which tiling options should be displayed.
Unfortunately at current moment I can't create code solution. Whole free time I spend to create easy graphical solution for cloud drive management in Lunux.

Oh, that's cool.

Additionally currently in Plasma it's hard to divide to 3+ tiled parts horizontally for very wide screens
