current version 0.31.2 and interacting with a remote app (WVD Published App) window does not invoke fancy zone operation either by dragging or keyboard shortcuts
this window is currently being dragged

to confirm the actual remote desktop application window which displays the available subscribed services does invoke fancy zones:

windows version 20H2, Build 19042.804

Please let me know if you need any more information. I've just got a UWQHD monitor and Fancy Zones is an absolute must-have.

unfortunately remote apps are not compatible with FancyZones and there is nothing that FancyZones can do to workaround it.

Can we open an internal issue for it?

Why can’t we get a hook?

@crutkas
it's the same problem we have with other remote/virtualization software, it's a mix of problems:

  • we may not receive the movesize start event
  • the app may swallow all mouse/keyboard events
  • if we try to resize it, the container is resized but the content may not
  • the window may not be recognized as a resizable window (technically this is solvable, but doesn't solve the other problems)
