Public bug reported:
Dear Santa,
This year I have been augmenting my TTY7 keyboard skillz and in that
respect the MOD+arrow key resizing capabilities.
As we know pressing MOD+right arrow shall flawlessly redraw the
currently selected window into half of the right side of the screen.
Based on my user expertise each and every time I invoke it I always
always always end up having to ALT+TAB to another window that I will
then MOD+left arrow to complement it. And so that I can see both windows
simultaneously.
My wish for this year is to automate the ALT+TAB part yet I have to ask
if this a X feature or if it's a MATE feature or ...? In that respect
this as a xorg bug.
But back to the problem: Redmond has got this feature implemented
already on their end. From our end it just currently looks like it's
halfway implemented. If not made a default behavior then for sure there
should be a way to allow the automated resizing of a 2nd screen once any
combination of the MOD+arrow keys will have been typed.
Cheers,
'lil Dan
PS: by "MOD" I mean the "windoze key" AKA MOD4?
