Amethyst: Allow different margins on edges of screen

[airways]

It would be great to allow different margins on each edge of the screen vs. what is between windows. This would allow setting a custom margin for the top, left, right, or bottom outside edge of the screen.

The use case for this is as a nice little reserved "tray" like area for desktop icons to remain visible.

Makes sense.

also pretty keen for this. I want to be able to configure a 'keep-out' zone around the edge of the monitor, and then have amethyst handle everything inside of that.

Hi guys,

I've been using SizeUp for a year now for this purpose: http://www.irradiatedsoftware.com/sizeup/

It works pretty fine.

Hope this help

hey @cyril-bouthors - thanks for the hint. I was using Magnet before this. I am after a tool that will automatically resize and position the windows as I add or remove them.
