Good evening,
Tonight after having merged snap areas from Better Snap Tool to BTT which I wanted to do as I was having some issues with Better Snap Tool I noticed that if I changed my monitor resolution, the Custom Snap Areas would vanish.
macOS 10.15.5 -- Mac mini with multiple monitors.
Is there a way to keep the Custom Snap Areas based on location rather than resolution?
Wanted to bump this topic back up as it never received a reply. @Andreas_Hegenberg!
Unfortunately that's by design. The snap areas are positioned absolutely and therefore only work on the specific display/resolution that was used for setting them up. However you can define a separate set of snap areas for other resolutions/displays.
In the future I might work on resolution independent snap areas that scale somehow.
Thanks for the reply. Would definitely love to see that in a future version, thank you!
I'd love this function. I switch resolutions throughout the day for all kinds of reasons, and I'd love a toggle to have the snap areas rez ind. if wanted. I can see both use cases for sure. Thanks!
In my case, I have my my macbook normally plugged into my ultrawide monitor when at home and on the road, I'm using the laptop screen (obviously). So, I would like this feature too, if possible.
Maybe have the option of converting the absolute positions to percentage of the current screen size when creating the snap areas?
Thank your for this post @Andreas_Hegenberg, going to test it out today (the % option)! The snap area feature is really something that I use daily with my laptop and weekly different setups, so any improvements here are so welcome 
.
Here my examples (my @homehomehomehome MacBook / widescreen setup) how I use your feature i.c.w. Spaces. Would love someday to have LLM minority report style agent mcp / api integration for BTT app & window management based on these preferred positions (f.e. based on my todo's and calendar), but the quick dragging feature for now is really a lifesaver for years. Thank you!
