[SOLVED] Is there the automatic tiling in XFCE ?

I am using XUbuntu and tiling on 50% Top/Bottom & Left/Right and 25% to 4 corners by keyboards are so good.

Is it possible to do automatic tiling like Pop!_OS does https://youtu.be/-fltwBKsMY0 ?

I don't believe so. What you can do, however, is enable corner tiling and assign shortcuts to tiling actions.

There are some third-party scripts that you can use that provide tiling-like functionality for ewmh-compatible window managers (like xfwm4) that provide more functionality than what is built into xfwm. xpytile is a common one. Others are listed and discussed in this thread.
