What is PowerToys and FancyZones?
PowerToys is a Windows Utility Tool by Microsoft that features FancyZones, a neat little window tiling manager, that let’s you customize window position/size + recall them. For single screen setup and some environments a blessing. For others it’s straight trash. (but PowerToys is highly recommended for everyone using windows, just for the native fuzzy finder, you can avoid the start menu for days
). Unfortunately floating windows are not supported for tiling but recalling and sizing works… most of the time.
Why I wish FancyZones would work with Nuendo
I have one particular arrangement of windows for different environments/pipelines… (audio, graphics, scripting, documentation, etc). it would have been a blast to add Nuendo to match my preferred screen ''reading" style a bit better… it would save me some brain cells from frying when switching context
.. also now i have to make 4 extra clicks per day..
