Powertoys: Window auto-alignment/snap/magnet to other windows and screen edges

Created on 7 May 2019  路  5Comments  路  Source: microsoft/PowerToys

When window is moved or resized, the edge should auto-align/snap when it gets within X pixels of an existing window or screen edge.

Edit: To clarify, I'm talking about snapping capability like the old "AllSnap" program. This has nothing to do with layouts or window management.

Would be great to support different common layouts, like splitting portrait mode in half vertically.

Exactly this. I have 2 portrait/vertical monitors that I'd love to split the top half and the bottom half.

For additional layout options, I recommend following #5.

A specific issue for splitting portrait mode in half has been opened here: https://github.com/microsoft/PowerToys/issues/60

Hi there,
Is this a feature request that's similar to what AquaSnap is doing?

If so, that would be a tremendously excellent addition to PowerToys! Can't wait for these.
