Full screen video messes with window layout

GuyOP

I find that when clicking on an embedded video, wither it's on Reddit or Jira, if I make it full screen when it completes, Tangrid will have reset my window arrangement from the first to the second layour in this image.

                                                      
  ┌─────────┬─────────┐       ┌─────────┬─────────┐   
  │   A     │    B    │       │   A     │    B    │   
  │         │         │       │         │         │   
  ├─────────┤         │ ────► ├─────────┴─────────┤   
  │    B    │         │       │        C          │   
  │         │         │       │                   │   
  └─────────┴─────────┘       └───────────────────┘

This is easily reproducable.

I reproduced the issue right at the end of this log

So 1.5.1 makes this somewhat better, but what I'm seeing instead is that A and B are full width and C is taken out of the window tiling.

here's a new log.

Found the reason. When a fullscreen window returns, it gets reinserted into the tiled layout based on a specific algorithm. If no other windows have been adjusted, it usually goes back to its original position. But if things have changed, the returned window's placement can look kind of random.

This was fixed in the latest update. If you’re still experiencing issues, please reply in this thread.
