Worked like a charm.
Got it all setup in 10 minutes (installed wmctr, wrote the script, made it executable, tested it).

Thanks for the tip!

If you create a shell script (basically, an empty text file) with the following:

wmctrl -r :ACTIVE: -e 0,-1,-1,W,H

where you replace W with the number of pixels wide and H with the number of pixels high, you can easily make windows half the width and/or height of the screen.

You can make as many scripts as you want (I've got about 20) and map them to keyboard shortcuts, to make windows all sorts of shapes that 'fit' alongside each other.

Just don't forget to make your shell scripts executable, via the text file's properties dialogue.

Hello,

Hi and welcome!

Nope.

Not to my knowledge. I remember a python script that can do it with all window managers, but I don't remember the name and where I saw it...

Edit:  http://github.com/soulfx/stiler

I am interested in using Xfce as a desktop environment, but I have a requirement, the ability to tile windows.
Has this feature been implemented yet? Will it be in the near future?

Thank you.

But well see, maby some one else do it

This is fairly important to me, I am using 4.4 RC1 on Zenwalk 3.0, and it would be the icing on the cake I think for xfce. I like running xfce in simplified mode, using a small xfwm theme, and almost no panel (I need my system tray!).
