 I'm currently trying to divide a monitor into four unequal horizontal parts.

The top three tiles being 20% of the screen, the bottom-most tile being 40% of the screen.

Each time I move one, it changes one tile next to it, with no way to try and balance the tiles.

How, can I get the tiles into uneven positions without having to spend unprecedented amounts of time trying to make it happen?

 Hi Kiwi,

Thank you for your request.

Have you read the User Manual article about the Tiles Editor? In particular, it says (I've marked the key facts bold):

Quote
- tiles in the editor have hierarchy

- you can split each tile only into two child tiles (using the edit buttons)

- when you resize the parent tile, its child tiles are resized proportionally

...

Please note the splitter's color: the deeper the tiles are in the hierarchy - the lighter a color of a splitter that divides them.

So, in your case, to get the desired layout, you should do as follows (reset the layout by clicking the Reset button to start from scratch):

  1. Split the screen into two horizontal parts (they get 50% of current monitor size by default).

  2. Make the lower part 40% of current monitor size (the upper part gets 60% of current monitor size automatically).

  3. Split the upper part into two horizontal parts (they get 30% of current monitor size by default).

  4. Make the lower of these new parts 20% of current monitor size (the upper new part gets 40% automatically).

  5. Split the upper part into two horizontal parts (they get 20% of current monitor size automatically).

Hope this will help. Please let me know if you have any more questions.
