Unexpected tiling window manager bonus: image popovers immediately get tiled to the same size

I never really got into these things because I guess it never occurred to me that they would have pleasant margin options for single app configs, which for some reason I kinda prefer (tiled round rect windows and drop shadows at 0px margin and padding look weird, to me)

I’ve used Moom ( https://manytricks.com/moom/) for years, it’s great.

now I’m playing with Amethyst ( https://manytricks.com/moom/) instead.

screenshot of a computer desktop with the mastodon application Ivory open and filling nearly the entire screen. floating over Ivory’s main window is an image open in a window about 1/3 the size of the main window by volume, which seems to have been the default way to “show image” since lightbox.js ten or fifteen years ago or whatever.

the same image loaded on the same computer with nothing changed except that Amethyst is running and instantly yoinked the image to fill the entire screen, which is always what I wanted when I tell the computer to “show image” or whatever, instead of lightbox.js style nonsense
