60/40 split

[jkananen]

I would like to split the screen 60/40 as it would allow VS Code with two panes (60%) and a browser (40%) side-by-side on my 27" 2K monitor, but I can't get it to work.

With halfs, VS Code does not have enough space for two panes, and with thirds, the browser window is too narrow.

These configs work if I try them one after another:

spoon.MiroWindowsManager.sizes = { 2, 5/2 }
and
spoon.MiroWindowsManager.sizes = { 2, 5/3 }

But these don't work (the latter of the fives is not effective):
spoon.MiroWindowsManager.sizes = { 2, 5/2, 5/3 }
and
spoon.MiroWindowsManager.sizes = { 2, 5/3, 5/2 }

As the config mentioned at #11 (comment) works for me, I've tried fiddling with the GRID setting..:
spoon.MiroWindowsManager.GRID = {w = 30, h = 24}
... in case the grid would have to be divisible by the pane sizes (the default 24 is not divisible by 5), but this did not help.

Am I doing something wrong?

Thanks!

EDIT: I have macOS Catalina 10.15.7 Big Sur 11.6

I have the same problem

For anyone that comes along looking for a solution...

Change the grid size to 100/100 and you'll be able to use the the following scaling options without issues.

obj.sizes = {5/3, 5/2, 2}

@jruf168 would you mind sharing your config? I tried with the one below, and things got really wonky...

spoon.MiroWindowsManager.fullScreenSizes = { 1 }
spoon.MiroWindowsManager.GRID = { w = 100, h = 100 }
spoon.MiroWindowsManager.sizes = { 5/3, 5/2, 2 }

The settings I currently use are:

obj.sizes = {5/3, 5/2, 2}
obj.fullScreenSizes = {1, 2, 5/3, 5/2}
obj.GRID = {w = 100, h = 100}

I don't typically align left/right with non-fullscreen windows. If I do i will only tile to a corner and then resize vertically, so you may be experiencing something with non-fullscreen windows?

I''m also using a 4k 27" display at 3840x2160 res.

On right align, I get a 1/5 sized window, which is pushed about 4/5 out of the screen. On left align, I get a full screen.

Since filing this issue over two years ago, I've upgraded to a 32-inch monitor, so this is not that much of an issue for me anymore. Mostly just curious now if this would work.

Very interesting the behavior is different from left to right. I imagine on the 32" display something like Yabai might be better suited.
