Description
If you have created multiple zones, it is a pain to rotate a window through each of the zones until you get the one you wanted. This functionality would allow to assign a shortcut to each of the zones. For example, Win + Shift + 1 would assign window to Zone 1, Win + Shift + 2 would assign window to Zone 2, and so on.

What is the expected behavior of the proposed feature? What is the scenario this would be used?
Enable a shortcut combination that allows user to send a window to the desired zone by using Win + Shift (or other combination) plus the number of the Zone.

For those with multiple monitors, it may need a different shortcut to switch to another monitor first (or just make all zone numbers sequential).

Using Shift and drag the window around is useful at times but it does not work if you have overlapping zones (In my case, I have 34 inch monitor divided in 6 zones. The two primary zones are 1/3rd left and 2/3 right. The 2/3rd is also divided into 4 equal zones - 2x2 setup. I cannot shift + drag over to the 2/3 zone because it always assigns it to one of the smaller zones).


If you'd like to see this feature implemented, add a 👍 reaction to this post.
