Window Management

Snap windows into any position with a single hotkey. Choose from 18 layouts to split the screen in half, quarter it, or move windows between monitors.

Setup

Create a menu for window management.

  1. Open "Menus" in Settings and create a menu
  2. Click "Add Item" and select "Window Management" as the action type
  3. Choose a layout (e.g., Left Half)
  4. Add more items for each layout you want
  5. Assign a hotkey to the menu
  6. Press the hotkey to open the menu and pick a layout to apply it

TIP

When you select an action, the label and icon are set automatically. See Auto-populate for details.

Target Screen

In multi-monitor setups, you can choose which screen the window is placed on.

OptionDescription
Active Window's ScreenPlaces the window on the screen where the focused window is (default)
Menu Position's ScreenPlaces the window on the screen where the menu appeared. The menu acts as an anchor, letting you explicitly choose the target screen

INFO

The target screen setting doesn't apply to Next Monitor, Previous Monitor, or Minimize.

Tips

A Radial Menu has 8 directional slots, which maps naturally to window positions. Match each slot direction to a layout for intuitive control.

Multi-Monitor Workflows

Add "Next Monitor" and "Previous Monitor" to your menu to move windows between screens. Combining layout actions and monitor actions in a single menu keeps everything one hotkey away.

You can also set the target screen to "Menu Position's Screen" -- simply open the menu on another monitor to move and snap the window there in one action.
