SUMMARY Currently when you drag a window it is just a floating window unless you hold the shift key at which point it snaps into zones. I would like the option to switch that so when that you drag a window it snaps into those zone unless the shift key is pressed in which case it is a floating window.
Interesting idea.
(In reply to Nate Graham from comment #1) > Interesting idea. Any update on this idea? I'm pretty onboard with this since I prefer tiling. Or perhaps some settings for customized tiling can be added to switch the behavior. Currently you have to first hold Meta --> Drag Window --> Hold Shift to activate customized tiling which is quite a bit annoying. Also the Customized tiling feature seriously needs some transparency. The only reason I remembered that customized tiling even exists is because I read about it one of your blog posts like a while back. (I had to go back searching your blogs to locate the name of the feature) Such a great feature having with no exposure to the user except the presence of a "Toggle Tiles Editor" in the Shortcuts section of System Settings is kind of ridiculous. I wouldn't be surprised if upwards 90% of KDE users are unaware of this great feature.
If there was an update on it, you'd see it here. Tiling is a niche feature because most people don't the combination of a large enough screen and a small enough number of open windows for tiling to really make sense for them, at least as implemented in its current form here.
