Description:
Makes windows non-overlapping, by automatically minimizing a window when it gets covered by another window, and optionally restoring it when space becomes available again.

Please make sure to install the most recent version, and to not use Discover for installation. Please note the additional instructions for configuration on old Plasma versions. For more information on installation, configuration and usage as well as any requests, please visit the GitHub page.

This extension is intended to keep the workspace clutter-free while maximizing screen real estate and retain the user in full control over window and workspace management, aiming to combine the efficiency of a tiling layout with the flexibility of freely positionable floating windows. By default, any window that has been automatically minimized will be automatically restored once the space above it is free again; this can be disabled in the configuration. The windows to be affected can be filtered by window type and application.

10 Could you please develop a version for plasma 6

10 My great developer friend. Your complement has been helpful to me for years! However, unfortunately, the Garuda I use updated Plasma to version 6. Therefore, its plasmoid broke. Because it is no longer compatible. But your palmoid is more important to me than Plasma 6. I would love to have it working again. Thank you very much if you do this. Don't let this wonderful work be forgotten in the past.

Will this app have a version for plasma 6? My Garuda forced entry to plasma 6. But this add-on is more important to me than plasma 6. Now I'm unable to use it... 😐

This piece of software is the one that changed my way of using the desktop for good. I don't have money to donate, but I promise you that some day I will donate something to society as good as this software is. Thank you very much NCLARIUS. Much love.
