From Federico Viticci at MacStories:
In iPadOS’ Shortcuts app, the existing ‘Open App’ action was recently updated with the ability to launch an app with a specific window placement parameter. This means you can now automate window positions on iPad by opening a bunch of apps and programmatically selecting where their windows be placed.
To find this feature, use the ‘Open App’ action in Shortcuts and expand it to reveal the new ‘Window Location & Size’ field. Here, you can click the default ‘Full Screen’ value to reveal a host of options:
- Full Screen
- Left
- Right
- Top Bottom
- Top Leading
- Top Trailing
- Bottom Leading
- Bottom Trailing
- Left Third
- Middle Third
- Right Third
Federico also created a “MultiSwitcher” shortcut to go along with it –check out the full piece on MacStories.
