PLEASE THINK CAREFULLY BEFORE POSTING HERE.
Developers do not look for reports on social media, so they will not see it and all it does is clutter up the feed.

You have to hold the
Shiftkey while moving a window for it to snap into the tiles you set up. If you just move them normally they have a different snapping behaviour like what you described.Edit: So as the deleted reply was probably asking, this is how it works in full. If you have the KDE Plasma desktop environment after a certain version (I wanna say 5.6-ish?) you can do the following:
Windows+T, or as we Linux nerds like to call itMeta+T, to configure your "tiling zones" on your monitors.Shift+LeftClickon the title bar of a window to move them into the "tiling zones" you set up.Discoverability on this sucks (as much of the Plasma desktop does) but it's a pretty cool feature.
You can change the zone size by dragging the border with the mouse while you are in the editing mode.
Edit: so drag to 1/3 and 2/3 roughly, split the bigger field again.
Know what you mean, would probably be a worthwhile feature request to make on the bug tracker.
thanks for this!
SHIFTjust does full vertical snaps, which on a vertical monitor isn't too useful. Is there a different combo for horizontal? I couldn't seem to find it.@ikidd @Muehe

Once I figured it out it seems to work as expected.
