[Paraview] PV 3.8.0 three same size windows

[Scott, W Alan]

Actually,  surprisingly there is.  You do it as follows (for example , for vertical splits):

Split Vertical
Split Vertical
Split Vertical for the lower window.

You now have 4 equal sized windows.
Delete the bottom window.

You now have 3 equally sized windows.

To clarify, by manually Utkarsh means that you need to use the mouse to adjust the 1/2,1/4,1/4 splits to be about 1/3,1/3,1/3.  There is no way to make three equal splits automatically.

I remember discussing grid type splits during developer meetings way back when.  Ultimately, we just left it with single splits because it had a nice clean GUI and seems to satisfy user needs well enough.  If you disagree and think lots of people would like multiple or grid-like splits, then you should add the suggestion to ParaView's UserVoice page (go to http://paraview.org and then click on the blue "Tell us what you think" button in the upper right).  If lots of people agree and vote for it, it will get implemented.

Unfortunately, currently you have to do it manually. However, with
3.10 we plan to provide a python API to size/resize windows which will
make this easier.
