Fancy Zone - Virtual Desktops

[taj3rconnect]

Description of the new feature / enhancement

it would be nice if I can set different settings of fancy zone on different virtual desktops. Fancy zone setting should be associated with the monitor# and virtual desktop name.

Scenario when this would be used?

I have different split screens of fancy zones for individual virtual desktops.
My Virtual Desktop #1 is for my office work and has its own monitor splitting (I have 36" and 49" monitors).
My VD # 2 is my stock trading screen and it needs its own monitor split scheme.

When you create a new virtual desktop, FancyZones automatically assigns the same layout as on the previous virtual desktop. But they should be independent after that and you can change the layout on any VD at any time.
Does it work for you?

@SeraphimaZykova it doesn't quite work. The layout editor doesn't work with "Show this window on all desktops" as it should (it doesn't change layouts when you switch desktops, leaving you unsure as to which desktop's layout you're editing). Also, when you restart the computer, it seems to pick layouts randomly from across the multiple desktops. I've occasionally had it get mixed up even without restarting (maybe the app crashed and restarted by itself). There are also issues when screens get connected and disconnected--the layouts should be attached to either physical ports on the video card or, even better, to the specific devices themselves, not the "screen number" which change as you add and remove screens.
