Open design question: what exactly should happen for resize smart?

I would say that resize smart would resize width+height as the float flow means that it has only one container, the screen itself.

I came in search of this feature and am pleased to see it's already on the drawing board!

I agree with @AlgusDark, resize smart would make sense if it adjusted both width and height simultaneously (considering we already have dedicated width/height resize options).

It would also be great if the width change was evenly distributed in each direction – in other words, if you resize smart on a centred window, it would grow evenly in every direction, remaining centred on the screen.

Floating windows would also benefit from the ability to set a specific size for both width and height (in fixed units or as a percentage). I guess this could already be done using two separate commands to set width and height individually but a single command might be nicer.

Rationale: When using very large screens (eg. 42" OLED), I find it useful to be able to float a window and set it to a "reasonable" size that I pre-define. Often I will also centre this window and black out the surrounds using https://github.com/dwarvesf/blurred in order to be able to focus on that. Depending on the window contents, it's nice to be able to tweak the size easily.

Anyway, just some extra thoughts! Thank you @nikitabobko for all your work on this project! 😎

The issue seems to be quite old, but I REALLY hope this gets implemented. Right now, I have to use Hammerspoon or something to resize the windows, but it's SUPER inconvenient.

I hope AeroSpace supports the floating window manipulation internally

I’m introducing a new concept called the leading axis to handle resizing options like smart | smart-opposite. The leading axis is the longer axis of the floating window, like the X-axis if the width is greater than the height.

With resize width|height, the corresponding axis will be changed.
With resize smart, the leading axis will be changed.
And with ‘resize smart-opposite’, the non-leading axis will be changed.

All resize commands do not change the center and the aspect ratio of the floating window.
The boundaries are checked as well.
