Tile your windows and restore your layout from a Stream Deck key
To arrange your windows from a Stream Deck, add Window Layout Keys for Windows: the Tile Windows key snaps your open windows into a neat grid, and the Save & Restore Layout key puts them back at the size and position you saved. Press Tile Windows again to put every window back where it was, and keep one saved layout per key for writing, streaming or meetings.
Stream Deck plugin · Works on Windows 10 or later with the Stream Deck app 6.9 or later.
What you can do
Tile in one press: Automatic, 2 side by side, 2 stacked, 3 columns, 1 large + 2, 2x2, 3x2 or 3x3, with an optional gap.
Undo with a press: press Tile Windows again and windows go back to where they were, maximized ones too. Windows you moved after tiling go back as well, and the key counts them.
Keep windows moving little: each window takes the nearest empty cell.
Save a layout: hold for 2 seconds and release to save up to 60 windows, with position, size, and maximized or minimized state.
Restore it with a press: the key shows how many windows came back and how many closed ones were skipped.
Keep one layout per key, for example for writing, streaming and meetings.
Find windows again: they are matched by program, then title, then order, so a program that was closed and opened again is found.
See the layout on the key: a small map of the saved windows, in one of four looks (Map, Classic, Neon, Solid). Settings are in English and Japanese.
Window positions and titles stay on your PC, and nothing is sent anywhere.
How it works
Install the plugin from the Elgato Marketplace. In the Stream Deck app, drag Tile Windows onto a key and press it. The windows of the screen you are working on line up in a grid.
Press it again and the windows go back to where they were before.
To save a layout, drag Save & Restore Layout onto a key, arrange your windows and press the key once. From then on, a press puts them back; hold the key for 2 seconds and release to save again.
While a tile can be undone, the Tile Windows key turns green and says UNDO.
How do I snap all my windows into a grid with a Stream Deck?
Drag Tile Windows onto a key and press it. The windows of the screen you are working on line up in the grid you chose, and Automatic picks one to fit the number of windows.
How do I put my windows back where they were?
After tiling, press the Tile Windows key again to return the windows to their earlier position and size. For a layout you saved, press the Save & Restore Layout key.
How do I save a window layout?
Arrange your windows, drag Save & Restore Layout onto a key and press it once to save. To save again later, hold the key for 2 seconds and release it.
Can I keep different layouts for different tasks?
Yes. Each Save & Restore Layout key keeps its own layout, so you can have one for writing, one for streaming and one for meetings. Copy a key to copy its layout.
What if a saved window is closed?
The key skips it and shows how many came back, for example 6/8, plus how many were not open. Another window of the same program can take its place, and a skipped window comes back on a later press once it is open.
Limits
Windows of programs run as administrator may stay put. The key counts them.
Fixed-size windows are left out of tiling.
Some programs keep a minimum size of their own. Such a window moves to its place but stays larger than the cell or the saved size.
Windows on other virtual desktops are not saved, tiled or moved.
