 the description says it:

putting windows into tiles, the icon/system menu and the close/[X] icon would be better reachable, if there were tight tile boundaries...

In fact, all "monitor bound" functions of AWM could be extended to have a "tile bound" function equivalent... and that's not primarily the purpose of desktop tiles... but at least some extensions would improve the tiles quite a bit...

 Hello TabSel,

Thanks for the post.

We'll consider this request.

 Are you talking about having the ability for applications to 'lock' or 'attract' to these boundaries so you can rapidly move the app to the desired location you want without having to fiddle around with it?

Update:
Have you seriously considered adding features that exist in WindowSpace

 Zardoz2293, what exactly WindowSpace features are you writing about?

As I understood, TabSel want to use the "tight monitor boundaries" feature (Actual Window Manager -> Multiple Monitors -> Mouse -> Tight monitor boundaries) for desktop divider tiles.

Best regards.

 you're right Vasiliy.

The more I think about (and work with tight monitor boundaries), the more I'd like to have an option to temporarily switch off/toggle tight boundaries...

 Vasiliy, specifically the capabilities at WindowSpace - Snap windows to edges & other window -- the snapping capability is huge. I don't find the snapping to inside app windows as valuable and having the ability to toggle on/off specific features would be most desirable.

Update:
Yes, these features exist in AWM, but have never worked for me. I've posted this on another thread. other thread

- TabSel, what do you want to use to switch off/toggle tight boundaries (hotkeys, modifiers like in the "Scroll inactive windows with the mouse wheel" feature ... )?

- Zardoz2293, it seems that we are writing about different features. This feature request is related to the "Desktop divider" feature only. And this is not related to a "Snapping" feature.

Best regards.
