Works for 1440 x 900 but not for mobile-ish ratios.. The width is always very off somehow.

2 bugs: #1 This works via mouse, but the "CTRL+2 SHIFT+A" doesn't work, and this is now an active Chrome shortcut, so it isn't available. ****** #2 Does NOT work if window is MAXIMIZED: Using Chrome Version 120.0.6099.131 (Official Build) (64-bit) and Windows 11 Enterprise (64bit) *************************** Message To the Developer: *************************** 1 feature needed: #1 Be able to set the shortcut-key ourselves, for each window size. 1 feature requested: ****** #2 if their is only 1 window size, allow the button to just do it, and not be a menu, and have clicking it a second time (if the window is already that size) then maximize the window. This way the button would be toggling the size selected and a full window back and forth each time we click it (remember, this request is for when there is only 1 size specified) But, I have 1 size set (800x600), and like it.

Helps me make sure that my webpages are formatted correctly for different resolutions! The keystroke doesn't work (maybe because I'm on Edge...) but it doesn't matter since I think clicking on the extension is easier. Thank you for this super helpful extention! (And to others, make sure your browser is in window mode, not in fullscreen..!)
