Hi,
so when applications are in a split screen mode if there is a shortcut to make an application(in focus) to switch between full screen mode or back to orignal split view position of that app that would be awesome if power toys can make it possible.

Thanks
PS: dont know if this is possible now somehow

Hi @raghavk92 , do the "Windows key+up" / "Window key+down" shortcuts serve your purpose? I'm not sure what is meant by full screen mode and split windows position mode, but I'm interpreting it as the "Maximized" / "Restored" positions.

Ya i thought it would work . I tried it but the "Windows key+up" does not work (maybe its a bug) in the split window mode.
So lets say there are 2 windows (vscode and browser) split vertically half and half . Lets call the A and B .
So the screen looks like:


A|B


  • So now i focus on B window and press windows key + up arrow so what it does is it further reduces the size of the window B , divides the screen horizontally into half and positions it on top half with bottom half becomes empty. Kind of like:

A | B
A | C


Here C is empty space.

Now pressing Windows key + down arrow restores to original split position like :


A|B


But Windows Key + Up Arrow is not working . Either a bug or a new shorcut needs to made for this case.

Thanks

If you press "Windows key + up" again, it should maximize the Window. This is not the case?

_targets #355_, which I need for improvements to messages

* [x] The initial package load takes a long time. This is pretty much unavoidable, but we do it on cmdpal startup, so anything after about 12s should be snappy
* [x] I cannot for the life of me get `FindPackagesAsync`, to be async. The call always ends up running synchronously, so I can't hook up the `operation.Completed` event, nor the cancellation. The action is already complete! 
  - this is probably blocking, because we still end up doing a search on most keystrokes, so we only get the final results after all the intermediate ones are done. 
  - Just pasting a search though? Just as snappy as you'd hope. 
  - Ahahahaha it wasn't me: [microsoft/winget-cli#5151](microsoft/winget-cli#5151)
  - ✅ manually wrapping this in a BG thread made it better
* [ ] We probably shouldn't make the default action for an installed package "Uninstall". 
  - Probably want to shunt over to the Settings app for the package
  - We probably want to do the thing where the second command doesn't show up if it's a separator
  - Punt? punt
* [x] We need to add more metadata in the details for packages. We have it, if only we could show it: microsoft#95 
  - This will be a follow-up
* [ ] This needs localization too
* I'm using the `1.10-preview` of the winget com interfaces. On my framework laptop at least, the `RefreshPackageCatalogAsync` API isn't yet implemented, so I need to test that
* [x] I don't think we implemented `MoreCommands` being observable in the host yet. We should.
  - Punted, microsoft#360 
* [ ] I probably also need to check if other APIs we're using exist or not
* [x] I haven't tested situations that like, need you to accept a license? Installing `nano` and the NanoLeaf app both _just work_. 
  - Punted?
