Feature Request: Automatic Offset and Resoution
tl;dr
I would like to be able to perform the following steps:
1. Locate window using Fancy Zones, windows snap, etc.
2. Press F4 to activate Windowed Borderless Gaming (WBG) to activate a borderless window in the same location and resolution as the window is (was)
edit: 2b. The ability to toggle WBG on and off for easier relocation of windows would be great with the above request.

Idea:
What I'd like, is for a game, once triggered with F4, to identify its location and size on the screen and enable WBG in that location, at that size.
A user could use Fancy Zones to position a program, and activate WBG keeping it in that location and size, but borderless.

Explanation:
Sometimes I like to play a game in the middle of my monitor, other times I want it to the side for side by side viewing with other things.
Currently, to adjust where a borderless window appears, I manually adjust the offset in "game settings", which works fine, but is inconvenient.

Pandering:
I'm not sure what's entailed in this software, so I hope this isn't too foolish of a request. Perhaps it's easier said than done.
Thoughts from devs or users?

I can do the location by changing the default offset to match the current one, but i cant have it adopt the entire window size by default, it adopts the windows client size, this is the size that needs to remain unchanged by default to ensure overall compatibility.

I could add hotkeys to quickly move and resize a window and then store the new offset and size for future use.

I totally agree, the way of moving of windows needs to be updated

I have 3ish regular places where I like windows to be, so perhaps a library of offsets could be nice.
Hotkeys to cycle through predetermined offsets or directly set an offset sounds like a great solution.

Unfortunate about the resolution change, but the limitation makes sense.

Thanks for the reply.
