Chrome OS introduces a helpful feature: It will be possible for you to pin apps or windows in the foreground. Can be helpful in such situations, if the split-screen is not the ideal format, because one of the windows e.B. in the small display format is sufficient.
A classic example might be working on a text while a video or messenger is supposed to run in a small window. Now you can pin such floating windows. Previously, this was not possible and newly opened windows pushed the others into the background. Then you just had to handle them, again and again, to pull them into the foreground.
To activate pinning, however, the flag “chrome:flags#cros-labs-float-window” must currently be activated. Also, according to Android Police, the current Chrome OS Canary version is probably still necessary.
Should then look like on the screenshot above, where you can already see the pin symbol in the window control. If the respective window is then pinned, it remains in the foreground, even if you are working in other windows. However, the functionality is probably not yet ready for the masses. Although the whole choice works, it would make sense if the pin symbol would discolor, depending on whether you have pinned a window or not. There is currently no visual feedback.
