window management

    I created an app that launches your apps in the window layout you want

    I’ve tried most of the layout management (yabai, amethyst, rectangle, moom, later) and focus apps (heyfocus, selfcontrol) but none of them were comprehensive + worked the way I wanted. I tried making the app I wanted for myself but was curious if other people would find it useful too. I’ve put...

    Windows moved after restart

    Often when I restart my Mac windows of either open or log-in apps aren't where they were before the restart, notably the "full screen" apps on my desktops are all in the same partially-off-screen position, which I find very annoying. How do I stop that behaviour once and for all? Or is this...

    Window management - different treatement maximized, not maximized windows

    Hello! I am new on Mac. I changed from Windows to Mac 7 weeks ago and yes, it's a nightmare to get into my new system. There are some things to learn. And there some things to understand. That's OK. But what I definitely can't get into my head is the window management of the Mac - I talking...

    Any "Always On Top" app for Mojave?

    My workflow requires a lot of coding, and sometimes pasting code from an editor to a terminal window. In those occasions, keeping the terminal window "always on top" is very convenient. Up until High Sierra, I used to use mySIMBL with its "Afloat" plugin. It was quite tricky to get it working...

    Hi-res / Ultrawide monitor app mgt

    Just a technical inquiry about Mojave. I'm considering a new- or refurbished-hardware-purchase in the coming months. Could be a 27-inch iMac i7 or a MacBook Pro 13-inch 17 w/ eGPU. Either setup would include an external monitor. I am concerned about window management when using multiple programs...

    Magnet or BetterSnapTool?

    And why? I'm using Sierra 10.12 right now. (I could buy both and try out, but I'll try crowd intelligence first.) BST was updated Oct-17, MGNT Feb-17 (how they could add HS support that early...?)

    MenuBar Window Switcher

    Hi there, anyone know if there is a third-party app that allows you to see different windows for an active app in the menubar? Instead of having to click on "Window" and clicking on an item in the window list, what you'd have is different windows shown as the apps icon, and one click would...

    Automatic window resizing

    I'm not sure if this feature was introduced in El Capitan or earlier but it's certainly been bugging me for a while. When grabbing a window on the top of its frame, if the mouse arrow drifts over the top menu bar, then the window resizes, not going full screen, but enlarging to the edges. To...

    Windows Centred - Clamshell or Not

    I'm constantly moving between using my MacBook Pro on the road and then when home, in Clamshell mode. I currently use Specticale and a keyboard command shortcut to centre each window! Window positions are never remembered when I move between clamshell and standalone. Does anyone know of an app...
