如何缩放具有固定纵横比的多个窗口，以使它们覆盖最大的显示器而不会重叠

Question

My question is in my title. I am trying to develop a logic so that I can scale fixed aspect ratio windows to cover most of the screen without overlapping eachother. There could be two three or four windows. There could be an alignment parameter also.

You my friend will want to start reading this

Optimal Layout Algorithm

this is a common problem in 2d game development ... think about the problem of how to pack sprites onto a sprite sheet. IE it well understood in 2d especvially seeing a you are dealing with rectangles. I am assuming that they are fixed aspect ratio and different sizes or else its simple maths. If i am wrong just shout and i will give you an algorithm.

There is another question on here about the
