Bug ID: 471106
Summary: Implementation of Window stacking using Tabs for
tiled layouts
Classification: Plasma
Product: kwin
Version: unspecified
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: wishlist
Priority: NOR
Component: Custom Tiling
Assignee: kwin-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: pos...@posteo.eu
CC: notm...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
Assuming a tiled layout of e.g. two windows. You open another window and place
it on one of the tiles.
The current implementation would simply place the 3rd window above on of the
others, fully covering the one beneath.
If you open a 4th window, you may end up having 3 windows stacked, but you can
only see the one on the top.
You may switch the windows using the task manager or the overview effect.
However, another more convenient option for tiled layouts could be to put those
windows into tabs. [1] [2]
