Hey Guys,
is it possible, or will it be possible sometime, to split windows in groupy. That means e.g.: got two explorere windows oben, one visible on the left screen-side, the other on the right screen side, but both only in one groupy tab. So you can easily copy paste and have a good overview at a big screen.
That would be awesome!
thanks
I came to the forum to see if any Stardock products have this feature. Groupy or Tiles are best positioned to implement such a feature. For Groupy, maximizing the group could offer to present the group in a tab-less window with each application's coordinates saved. Then, if we can bookmark such a configuration, we can then launch it to restore the applications to our preferred positions and dimensions. Extra credit if the developers can save and restore specific documents within popular applications.
For Tiles, similar to dragging a window onto the bar to bookmark it, I would like to hold down Shift, Ctrl, or Alt key while dragging a window and have it group all visible windows, storing their window coordinates into a bookmark that would restore all.
In general it is okay to use the tabbed approach or the usual window approach that I can reposition on the fly. It's just not efficient and wastes time. I have daily and weekly activities that would be so much faster to transition into, complete, and transition out of if I could have this feature.
You can already do this in Windows w/o Groupy using Windows Snap.
Not really, emunews. Windows Snap doesn't let you save layouts of applications at the dimensions and positions you want, nor will it allow anything more complex than four windows arranged in four quadrants or three windows where two are shoved into half the screen and the third takes up the rest. The best you can do with Windows Snap is manually move all your windows to where you want them every time and then manually start reposition the divider(s) every time. It grows old and doesn't even meet the requirements.
I want to have a saved layout of, say, one area up top where my video player is moved to and to the exact dimensions every time, my text editor window is moved to the bottom corner and always the small dimensions I prefer, my solitaire game centered and positioned just below the video player (and I always want to position it so the bottom is a little off screen so I get maximum video player dimensions -- Windows Snap doesn't allow that), and I want my desktop showing in between (except the top part that I fill with my video player), and in video play mode I have Fences set to hide the desktop so its a nice black background. Then when done goofing off, I want to click a button or invoke a command that minimizes all those and snaps in another set of windows for different applications because now I'm in work mode, or media organization mode, or catch up on email time. Windows Snap can't do any of that. Nor does Windows' semi-proficient method of always opening an application to its last position and dimensions. I have layouts where I want the exact same application dimensioned differently (always a manual job with Windows), and if I had last closed the application maximized or with some other dimensions, it will go to that next time rather than my preference.

Sweet, thanks AzDude! Also thanks to emunews for offering the Windows Snap suggestion. Even if our use case is a bit different, the suggestion was greatly appreciated and helps those with less demanding requirements. 
Have you seen this?

+1 Vote for this functionality as well.
I would like to be able to Tile Vertically / Tile Horizontally / Tab View / Cascade - all within 1 window - and add a drop-down menu on the title bar to switch rapidly between views. (hotkey would be nice too)
Ability to save and recall the format/layout/view as if opening a single window (single app shortcut). Also, a save button on the title bar to save the new layout view (auto save would also be a nice option too)
These pics are of SecureCRT (SSH CLI tool - Putty on steroids) showing this type of functionality:
I would like to also request this. Split, tile, cascade, whatever you can do, but Split would be very useful for directory to directory operations.
Thanks.

I also thought about that feature!
It could be like the new "Split Screen" in Microsoft Edge. That means that you can view 2 tabs in the same window, side by side.
Programs like Google Calendar PWA in the left, and Todoist Desktop in the right side. See...
Also, being able to resize the views of each application, and saving their size for future launches.
I hope someone in Stardock's Team could look this
