How to use this skill

Install the positioner plugin:

cargo add tauri-plugin-positioner

Register the plugin in your Tauri builder:

tauri::Builder::default()
    .plugin(tauri_plugin_positioner::init())

Configure capabilities in

src-tauri/capabilities/default.json

{ "permissions": ["positioner:allow-move-window"] }

Position a window from the frontend:

import { moveWindow, Position } from '@tauri-apps/plugin-positioner';
await moveWindow(Position.TrayCenter);    // center below tray icon
await moveWindow(Position.TopRight);      // top-right corner of screen
await moveWindow(Position.BottomRight);   // bottom-right corner

Handle multi-display by checking which monitor the tray icon is on and positioning relative to it
Account for scaling factors on HiDPI displays that affect coordinate calculations

Positioner plugin setup with Position enum
Tray-relative and screen-relative positioning
Multi-display and HiDPI scaling guidance
