Divide monitors into virtual X11 sub-screens clamping maximized windows
A Linux X11 alternative to MaxTo. Independent open-source project, not affiliated with or endorsed by Digital Creations AS. Window enumeration, maximize state interception, global hotkeys, and region clamping operate on X11/EWMH (and XWayland); Wayland-native windows cannot be moved or intercepted by external X11 clients.
FEATURES • Region Splitter & Virtual Sub-Monitors: slice each RandR monitor horizontally or vertically via an interactive recursive binary split tree with draggable splitters, persistent region layout, and an active Maximize Interceptor Watcher polling _NET_WM_STATE_MAXIMIZED_VERT/HORZ to clamp maximized X11 windows inside their containing virtual sub-screen. • Per-Region Maximize Mode & Live X11 Windows: inspect open X11 windows mapped to virtual region IDs, maximize to region, cycle regions, span 2 adjacent regions, and toggle desktop region border overlays. • Preset Profiles & Global Hotkeys: save and load multi-monitor split tree presets (Ultrawide 21:9, 4K Quadrant, Dual-Display Split) and register XGrabKey shortcuts (Ctrl+Alt+M, directional Ctrl+Alt+Left/Right/Up/Down).
