馃摑 Provide a description of the new feature

In the office, I have a 16: 9 monitor, and at home it is 21: 9. When I connect with RDP, all windows are left aligned, which is terrible. I have to move them every time I work from home and from the office.
If it were possible to center-align FancyZones on a remote machine - I would be just happy!

Interestingly, when you start the editor, the zones are in the center. But if you move the windows and hold down shift - the zones on the left side, like the windows.

@Mystic8b
custom layouts don't auto-adjust to different screen resolutions.
We are planning to provide automatic layout switching in the future, but for now you have to create two layouts, one for the 16:9 monitor and one for the 21:9 monitor and manually switch layouts.

With this option on, the zoned windows will be re-assigned to the proper zone:

Thanks! Everything worked out, that's enough for now.
Maybe you can (and want to) add the ability to "stick" zones to the center of the screen, or some other way to set the zones perfectly aligned with the center of the screen or some other position.
