Restore on launch

Bring windows back to the exact positions you saved when you launch a profile.

This feature is part of FluidZones Premium.

On this page

If a profile has saved positions, FluidZones can use them instead of the layout. Restoring only happens as part of a launch.

When you launch#

If the profile has a snapshot, an alert asks Restore window positions? with two choices: Restore uses your saved positions, Use Layout uses the layout of each app. Check Remember my choice for this scene to stop being asked.

Change the preference#

At the bottom of Launch Sequence, the row Restore saved positions on launch lets you choose:

  • Ask every time
  • Always restore
  • Never restore

It is saved per profile, and the row only appears when the profile has a snapshot.

Tips and limits#

  • If an app has a zone on a monitor that is connected, the zone wins over the snapshot, so a snapshot taken with a monitor unplugged cannot drag windows to the wrong screen.
  • Needs Premium and the Accessibility permission.
