[FZ] - Apply layout to multiple desktops

[mikeli77]

Description of the new feature / enhancement

I use 4 desktops with my large monitor. After defining a fancy zone, I find that it is only applied to the initial desktop where I defined the zone. So currently I have to redo the zone definition for each desktop.

Some ideas

1. an setting option (checkbox) to apply the same fancyzone across all desktops.
2. set a fancy zone as default (for all desktops)

Found with powertoys v0.55.1 using Windows 10

Scenario when this would be used?

When using multiple desktops which are super useful for multi tasking as they keep all windows together needed for working on a specific task

Supporting information

This should be only be a few clicks if they are grid based layouts

I created the custom zone, clicked 2, and then clicked the zone again.

Thanks Clint. I created a custom zone also which helps. But to apply it to multiple virtual desktops I have to move the zone editor to each desktop then apply the custom zone. So there are workarounds but would be nicer if there was some specific support for virtual desktops.

I am the original author and I replied back within 1 day of the comment (but with the wrong github account, oops). I don't believe I have permission to remove the "Needs-Author-Feedback" label, so don't think I can all off the msftbot myself unless this comment takes care of it.

That's why the bot is not removing the Needs-Author-Feedback. :)
