kloy/gnome-shell-snap-windows

Snaps windows to different locations on the screen with a script that can be key bound.

What this project does.

This project was made to fulfill my want to be able to place windows on my desktop in a 4 square like fashion with a keybind. After creating keybinds for these scripts you will be able to place windows in the following ways:

• Center horizontally maximized
• Top horizontally maximized
• Bottom horizontally maximized
• Left vertically maximized
• Right vertically maximized
• Left Top half width and height
• Left bottom half width and height
• Right Top half width and height
• Right Bottom half width and height

Prerequisites

In order for these scripts to work you must first install wmctrl.

I installed wmctrl in Ubuntu by running sudo apt-get install wmctrl in terminal.

Installation

To install clone the project and copy the scripts located in the *bin* dir to a dir accessible in your PATH. Now create keyboard shortcuts that execute the scripts.
