I want to switch from Windows to Linux for my office PC.
I will be using multiple Windows VM because in the office we use multiple software that runs only on Windows (maybe we'll switch to something else, but right now I need the VMs) and because i like to snapshots and go back in time when I test new software.
I thought about Ubuntu because it seems to be the most user friendly.
I always work with a tons of opened windows (mainly Firefox) and I like to have a place for each of them, Right now on Windows I use DisplayFusion that creates multiple virtual screens (7, 4 or the 32" horizontal monitor and 3 on the 28" vertical one, both 4K), I've attached the configuration.
So, the question: is there a software that works kinda like DisplayFusion? (virtual screen each with it's own taskbar, maximize in each of them, remember the position of each window, ...).
P.s. Can I pass only some USB port to a Windows VM using KVM?
Pp.s. Is it possible to use Premiere on a Windows VM? Would it run smooth?
Not exactly what you're asking for but you should look into tiling window managers, if I'm understanding correctly they do almost exactly what you want
For example on my laptop if I open Firefox it opens in full screen, if I open a terminal it resizes Firefox to half the screen and opens the terminal in the other half, a third and it splits whichever window I'm focused on vertically etc etc
You could achieve what you want by having the VMs in windowed mode and just using a tiling wm
You get the added bonus of virtual desktops that you can flick through with mouse buttons/keybinds/3 finger swipe if you want multiple layouts of different windows
Also I've not used it but I'm pretty sure hyprland has something called fake full screen where it tricks windows into thinking they're full screen while actually being windowed
Interesting!!! I'll definitely give it a try! Thanks!
