I use "Notion" Web app but every time I start it, it's started half-screen.
I want to start it maximized by default. How can I achieve that?
My config:
I use x11; since on wayland, web apps don't work correctly and are problematic, just like everything else on wayland.
Unfortunately, I couldn't find a solution - no matter how I edited the .desktop file of Notion.
What works is the gnome extension "One Window Wonderland", but this extension opens all apps maximized unless exceptions are specified in the extension's ignore list. I'm not sure if you would like this. You can set the gap size to 0.
If you're on Zorin OS 18, try disabling the tiling assistant. I think that might play a role as it tries to place windows in a predetermined location as per the tiled layout selected.
Thank you. Unfortunately there is no option to only set the applications I want
Having all applications started as maximized and not remembering is not something I want. I checked the issues and unfortunately it doesn't look like they will update it soon.
@zenzen Unfortunately disabling Zorin Tiling Shell didn't work.
Is it only the web apps or do other native programs also have this same faulty behavior? It would also help to test with other browsers if you have the chance just to rule them out as being a factor here.
Brave has the same problem.
But with Firefox(flatpak), even though it's not fullscreen, at least it is centered.
I tried to add some parameters I saw on the internet such as "--file-forwarding org.mozilla.firefox" and "--new-window --start-maximized" but they don't work.
I'd like to know this as well. I haven't looked deeper into it, but since firefox web apps actually open centered I imagine this is somehow related to chromium browsers, or Xorg. Or both. I don't want to use Wayland just like you since web apps don't behave properly in other ways (titlebar doesn't match system theme, opened apps are decoupled from those pinned in taskbar, also no proper icons showing). Also the windows open in the left not fully maximized even when I don't use the tiling manager. At least when I do use it I can make it so that they tile where I want them to be at first launch xD
You can create a layout with only one tile using Zorin's tiling manager. Select it in the app indicator, and it will be the default in each new workspace unless you select a different tiling layout.
Then a web app made using Brave browser opens like this:
Keep in mind you need to enable auto-tiling for apps to open maximized without you doing it yourself.
@MidnightRose I created the new layout (maximized) from Zorin Appearance -> Windows -> Advanced Window Tiling -> Settings -> Edit Layouts section. (I don't know why it shows 2 tiles line)
But it still opens like this.
Ok the 2 layout lanes are definitely weird.
Did you enable auto-tiling? You didn't mention it in your reply, it's crucial to getting what you want 
I just did it but unfortunately it didn't work. Thank you for the help.
Also selecting the maximized 1-tile breaks Super+Left/Right shortcuts 
I am back to the first tiling option.
Well that sucks. Something isn't right, this should work
