All popular IDEs (and most apps) seem stuck in a single-monitor paradigm. When are we going to get an IDE that sets the bar for working with multiple monitors? For inspiration, look at multi-monitor (mastodon.gamedev.place)

I use fancy zones for windows, and I have a zone that compromises one 4k screen and half of two others. That zone is for my VS window, two main code panes in the center and one off to each side.

It doesn't remember the layout of the tool windows... I'll have to look into the save/apply functionality you mentioned.

I prefer VS over vs-code, but in VS the window/tabs are bulky and slow compared to vs code which makes this all more annoying. First world problems though...

Edit: using VS 2022 on win 10
