[Bug 1400377] Re: snapping to portrait/landscape

 

This can be achieved by setting window snapping on chosen trigger eges
to top half and bottom half.

Per screen settings are not supported by unity to the best of my
knowledge, so unfortunately this is not possible right now. If you
manage to find any way this can be done, please inform us and we'll add
the feature after studying how it can be done.

Meanwhile, if you have both a portrait screen and a landscape screen,
and need snapping for top/bottom and left/right,  a workaround is to set
window snapping triggers on all four edges to fill the respective halves
( top edge for top half and so on) and use a corner for maximize.

Unity project may want to look at this feature-request, I am marking as
affects unity and closing for unity tweak tool.

  snapping to portrait/landscape

Bug description:
  We can currently configure window snapping (take half the screen or
  the like) in unity-tweak-tool, this is nice. On a normal display, the
  screen is landscape so pushing window in side of screen split the
  screen in 2 (left/right) and pushing on top maximize the window. But
  on a portrait screen one would most likely want to split in 2
  (top/bottom).

  I would like to be able to configure either per screen or per layout
  (portrait/landscape) ?
