I want to split the window of my ubuntu 20.04 desktop into four parts. I looked for possible approach as in this question. First of all, I am not able to get the options as shown in the settings/appearance section of the above question. secondly, the unity-tweak-tool is not accessible through the terminal(maybe I don't know the proper way to access it).

Any help is appreciated. NOTE: I could ask in the same thread of that question, but the reputation is restricting me from doing that.

With Ubuntu 22.04 you will actually apply gnome-tweaks instead of gnome-tweak-tool:

sudo apt install gnome-tweaks

So, first of all install gnome-shell-extensions

sudo apt install gnome-shell-extensions

then install the gnome-tweak-tool

sudo apt install gnome-tweak-tool

This tweak-tool can come much handy than you think, we can easily manipulate the window size, and move it/relocate it to our need.

The second method is to go to gnome website. Theirin, search for gTile, but having installed "gnome-shell-extensions" is a prerequisite. You can also download>>install the browser version(available on the website itself) to let your browser support the tweaks done by the gnome extension.

The below is a great source to understand how gnome-shell and its extensions work. https://itsfoss.com/gnome-shell-extensions/
