Multi Monitor support

Hi, I'm using 3 monitor setup at work and ideally I would maximize 3 windows on each of the windows, but if the window is not focused half of the shortcuts do not work and resizeing etc is mixed up.

So if you could make it so, that one window spread to 3 works aswell then 3 windows on each of the monitor, focus wise, would be super great!

A windows user! This is an OS feature. Mac and Linux users don't have to deal with this. You can enable this feature in windows 10 by going to the Control Panel > Ease of Access > Change How Your Mouse Works. Enable "Activate a window by hovering over it with the mouse."

For me the time it took to activate the window on hover was too slow, so I shortened the delay using the instructions here.

If you don't like dealing with the registry editor or want to change these options in a gui, you can try Winarotweaker. This also allows you to make it so that any window you hover over doesn't automatically move in front of the window you're working in, which can be pretty annoying.

Set it up like this:
