Description Andres Betts 2022-01-25 19:25:09 UTC
I wanted to request a new snapping area for the window snapping feature for Plasma. Snap to center. As the user drags a window across the desktop, the user gets an additional area to snap into in the center. For those users who like to have a very organized desktop, bringing windows to the very center of the screen helps with focusing one's vision, avoiding tilting. It also signals focus for users. I think it would be great if it existed, especially as bigger screens make it more of a chore to organize windows.

There is already a "Move Window to Center" action in KWin that you can assign a global shortcut to in System Settings > Shortcuts > KWin. Is that good enough?
