How to apply a layout preset

Steps

  1. 1

    Turn TabStack on for the monitor first.

Method

Snap Wheel

  1. 1

    Open Snap Wheel → More Actions → Select Layout.

  2. 2

    Pick Split View, Focus + Stack, or Four Corners, then Apply.

Method

Menu bar

  1. 1

    Choose TabStack… from the menu bar only when you are entering TabStack.

  2. 2

    Pick a layout and Apply. After TabStack is already on, apply a preset from Select Layout — the menu has no later apply door.

Settings → Choose Layout... sets the default for new TabStack sessions. That is a different how-to.
