I've went through this interesting thread: Lubuntu 19.10 & 20.04: How to tile windows? The window tiling section is missing in lxqt-rc.xml Lubuntu 19.10 & 20.04: How to tile windows? The window tiling section is missing in lxqt-rc.xml.

It works perfectly for Super+Right / Super+Up / Super+Down, but is not functionnal for Super+Left. Note that the command openbox --reconfigure does not change the situation.

Here is the extract of lxqt-rc.xml. Does anybody have an idea why Super+Left is not functionnal ?

    <keybind key="W-Left">
        <action name="UnmaximizeFull"/>
        <action name="MaximizeVert"/>
        <action name="MoveResizeTo">
            <width>50%</width>
        </action>
        <action name="MoveToEdge"><direction>west</direction></action>
    </keybind>
    <keybind key="W-Right">
        <action name="UnmaximizeFull"/>
        <action name="MaximizeVert"/>
        <action name="MoveResizeTo">
            <width>50%</width>
        </action>
        <action name="MoveToEdge"><direction>east</direction></action>
    </keybind>
    <keybind key="W-Down">
       <action name="Unmaximize"/>
    </keybind>
    <keybind key="W-Up">
       <action name="Maximize"/>
    </keybind>

I've posted on discourse.ubuntu.me, and finally found the answer : https://discourse.lubuntu.me/t/how-to-resize-windows-using-hot-keys-to-fill-50-of-the-screen/1189 :

The instruction <keybind key="W-Right"> was not working. I had to use <keybind key="Super-Right"> instead. In my first message, I was mixing Super and W. For some reason, the 2 keys are not the same.
