πŸ“ Provide a description of the new feature

Think about origin Win10's zones:

  • We count pin a window to right half of screen by Win+β†’
  • Then pin to bottom-right but Win+↓
  • At last, restore it to right zone by Win+↑

I mean, when moving window across zones, could we change the step from single shortcut to double shortcuts?
Just like grid layout, with a window in bottom-right zone:

  • When pressed Win+↑, it spans across 2 zones to the left side of screen instead of moving to top-right
  • Then press Win+↑ again, it shirnks to top-right

Why do we need this?

I'm using grid layout to arrange 4 docs/browsers for browsing infomations, placing music player, etc.

Then when I came up to work with something, I need a workspace large enough. That is, an interactive window(mso word, or IDE) spans across 2 zones, and leave 2 zones remain for retrieving infomations.

But I couldn't use Win+↑ or Win+← to span my window ascross zones. I can only drag my window's boarder to resize it.

It is not elegant.

We need cross-zone-spanning.
