About Stack
A must-have tool for large screens or multiple monitors. Stack is a productivity tool, that helps move windows around. Divide screens into arbitrary zones. Quickly move windows between zones. Customizable hotkeys and mouse drag. Group windows into tabbed areas. Stack vertically or horizontally within a zone. High DPI support and highly customizable layout, based on XAML. With v2.1 we are adding an ability to create and share custom widgets, that can be put on Stack layouts. The initial release of Stack v2.1 contains a single sample widget, and a small amount of composable tools, that enable the creation of more complicated data-rich widgets inline inside your layouts. Stack can now automatically assign most newly opened windows to their closest zone. You can now change which mouse button is used to drag windows between zones. We've added an ability to assign hotkey combinations to move the active window to the zone.

FancyZones
FancyZones is a window manager utility for arranging and snapping windows into efficient layouts to improve the speed of your workflow and restore layouts quickly. FancyZones allows you to define a set of zone locations to be used as targets for Windows on your desktop. When you drag a window into a zone or enter the associated keyboard shortcut, the window is resized and repositioned to fill that zone. You can also trigger zone selection mode by clicking the non-primary mouse button if the "Use non-primary mouse button to toggle zone activation" setting is enabled. If two zones are adjacent, a window can be snapped to the sum of their area (rounded to the minimum rectangle that contains both). When the mouse cursor is near the common edge of two zones, both zones are activated simultaneously, allowing you to drop the window into both zones. You can drag the window until one zone is activated, then press and hold the control key while dragging the window to select multiple zones.
