Presume you mean this one:

With the name of the program you can't lose your way and can see another interesting program in that page : SplashKiller.

General Software Discussion / ResizeEnable for windows 8.1
« Last post by Contro on October 10, 2016, 02:23 AM »
this little application
http://www.digitallis.co.uk/

help me to see in a comfortable way almost any window. But in the windows 8.1 environment seems not go well.

Any alternative ?

1353
Perhaps. I have the killprocesses.exe AHK script with an ini in this format :
[settings]
  NumberOfProcesses=2
  process1=winamp.exe
  process2=iexplore.exe

  SecondsBeforeKilling = 5

But then I will have to make another script to close the system...

Closing an application / a program on a smartphone:

How to close an app in Windows 8

Closing Windows:

I have found nothing for windows 8.1 safe.


By default, Windows 8.1 should be configured to start up and shutdown fast (you can confirm Fast Startup\Shutdown is enabled by scrolling down the System Settings box) but if it’s still not shutting down to your standards you can do a few things:

The fastest way to shutdown your computer, without pulling the plug, is to press the Windows Key + r and type: shutdown /s /t 0

- it's easy to make such a hotkey combination part of a shortcut:

Right click the desktop and go to New and choose Shortcut.

Enter this: C:\Windows\System32\shutdown.exe /s /t 0

The “/s” thing tells Windows to shutdown and the “/t” says wait 0 seconds in time to do it. In other words, do it now!

https://www.donationcoder.com/forum/index.php?topic=10467.0

Just create a shortcut to force shutdown and your problem should be solved.

------------------
Modified:
Sorry, Contro, Now I have tried it myself on Win_10: The method will of course close Windows all right, but it didn't work with my Firefox, so there may easily be others it doesn't work with. :-(

I know this method.

But it's safe ?

Some programs is better wait certain time.

So I would like to control the process more accurately.

I am with windows 8.1
I remember certain utilities or modifications in the windows registry to accelerate the time of closing the windows system.
I have found nothing for windows 8.1 safe.
I would like an utility to be executed automatically when reiniating or turning off the system to close apps of my election.

Do you know anyone ?

GridMove don't scale the window when move. So this is not confortable at all. Even because if you maximize you lose the grid.

I don't see the advantage.
 :-\
1357
Some programs like Goldmine have alarm windows that are not moved to the selected grid.....

1358
I was searching my database to find the program I used to create sceneries : yLaunch2
1359
Perhaps an answer may be :
Launch the scenery or bunch (group) of programs, files and folders associated to the work.
Then launch GridMove.
And like the program Fences have rules to assign a fence to a condition. With GridMove something of the sort.  :-[
1360
By example.
The script open the projects folder. And the folder opens in a predefined grid.
When I open the word file associated does in a predefined grid.
If we open autocad does in a grid predefined too.
With a little imagination you can mount sceneries to your needs.
1361
Some time ago I get scripts to launch a "program scenery" . Launch several files o folders with predefined programs.
So was I am expecting of GridMove is something like that.
Launch automatically several programs, files and folders and distribute in the grids.
In a few seconds I can have all the necessary tools for a work.

Another feature may be to open a program in a predefined grid.

 :P
1362
In my case the Key "N" seems not work in any way. If I insist write the letter N in the active window

How do you get that feature.

The interesting thing with three monitors may be to have different patterns in each one.
By example :
one grid in the smaller one,
two grid in the middle one,
and four grid in the largest one.

 :-*
Any experienced user to give a good advice ?

 ;D
1363
Seems the more simple program.
I'd say GridMove is a not very simple application, so it might take some more time to get used to, and get the configuration just right.
I am trapped in configuring. Just after window+G hotkey.
I don't understand the instructions or help.

the way I use it is:

Win+G
=> you should see a grid with numbers overlaid on the screen
=> pressing a number will move the active window to that position
If you dont want the layout shown. pressing the 'N' key will move onto the next layout, press again for the next, and so on

If you want a layout that is not included, have a look at the gridmove section in the forum, you can add new layouts, or make your own.

Disclaimer, I've never used gridmove with multiple monitors

EDIT// this on Win.7 (see Ath's post below)
Owww I see your post now !!!!!!!!

In windows 8.1 i can mantain the hotkey win+g
In multiple monitors goes well.
If with the standard grid you see three portions, with three monitors you see the same rule repeated into the three monitors and subsequently nine portions or grids.
I have tried the way you tell and works fine for me too and so I don't need to put the cursor in the little window with two "-"
I have to put 04 because the program reserved a number to undo in each of the monitors.

So I have 1-Undo, 2,3,4,5-Undo, 6,7,8,9-Undo,10-11-12

I am beginning to feel more confortable with this....

 
1364
I obtain the same grids in the three monitors i have.
In one of them  to the last right appear a little window with two -
Something like this :    - -
When I select that window and put by example 04 the active windows move to that grid.
In the rest of the method i am lost.

GridMove's default hotkey Win-G isn't going to work on Windows 10 (and probably Win 8.x) as it has a different function predefined. (I tried that already and changed it to Win-W)
In windows 8.1 I think we can mantain the combination win+G with no problem.
It goes well in my case.
1366
So I think i need software to divide the 52" monitor in four independant displays and make a lot of operations with this option.

can you describe in more detail what you mean by "a lot of operations" ?

And how independent do you want the displays to be ?


a lot of operations - configurable . Able to change windows, size. Able to configure one program or another to appear in that window.

Nothing special. Configurable. Better if easy to configurate. GridMove may be the answer, but I have problems with it.

im a big fan of multiple monitors (2-4), but not huge monitors like you are talking.  27" is about as large as i would want, and i think there are diminishing returns after 3 or 4 monitors.

Yeap. That's because you don't have a huge monitor without use. I have now three extended monitors
http://www.acer.com/...t/model/UM.VG6AA.B02
is a 23"
second hand
http://www.lg.com/ca...g-L1718S-lcd-monitor
is a 17"
second hand
http://www.lg.com/es...lg-W2453V-PF-monitor
is a 24"
second hand
http://www.lg.com/uk...s/lg-42SL8000-lcd-tv
is a 42" (not connected)
second hand
I have another smaller than the LG Flatron L1918S. But sure goes well. Only VGA interface.

If I buy the graphic card VisionTek Radeon 7750 2GB GDDR5 6M (6x MiniDP) - 900614 perhaps I complicate my life.

With three monitors i am "almost" happy. Much better than one.

I agree with you than a 42" break the equilibrium....

I am trying to find an answer and perhaps the best I can do is a gift of that TV/monitor.

And even a gift of a Laser because i prefer to print in the copier service. Times are changing so fast....

You surely would need JGPaiva's GridMove to manage all the windows nicely on your large monitor.

You failed to mention what OS is on your system.
Seeing the specs it is a rather modern, top of the line, powerful PC, even though you stated it isn't :huh:.
Yes I fail. It's windows 8.1
Running to try JGPaiva
1372
Windows 10 has Virtual Desktops you can switch between.
Thanks a lot. I forget to say i am an user of windows 8.1 for some years. Until windows 11 resolve its problem with my CRM. Or I decided reprogram all the macros with an alternative language to that included in my CRM and incompatible with windows 10.

1373
I have a sort of fever about this last weeks.
It's the first pc i bought by components mounted with my own hands.
I have a lot of old monitors and even a monitor/TV of 52". (ejem is only 42")
At the present moment I have three monitors in extended way connected with two old graphic cards.
I am thinking about connect the fourth....
The fourth may be the 52" size.
So I think i need software to divide the 52" monitor in four independant displays and make a lot of operations with this option.
Some years ago I was experiencing with virtual desktops. Even in Linux with 3D desktops.
In my environment what I need is not powerful graphics, only see the documents simultaneously.

My equipment
motherboard Asus z170k
RaM 32 GB DDR4
Main SSD 480 GB
Intel i7 6700k

It's not a very powerful pc, but is enough for me now.

What software do you recommend to obtain more productivity working with multiple monitors.

Best Regards

If you mean anything like I think you mean, I suggest you search the forum for "PTFB", and similar software.  Many threads mention it, e.g this one: Recommended replacement for Push The Friggin Button (PTFB)?

A real lot of auto click software.

Do you recommend one as the very best ?

from Cloq:

How do I remove ads from KMplayer and how to disable box in kmplayer Disable Advertising Sidebar In Kmplayer.


If you installed the new version of Kmplayer (3.7). Without any disable option, you should see a advertisement (ads) slide panel in right side & even in the full screen view.

Although they said this player is free, It seems likes developers of the Kmplayer are going to make some money now. this is called "Adware".

This ads panel appears only when you connected to the internet. So if you want to to remove / disable advertising sidebar in Kmplayer you should disable internet accessing by the Kmplayer software.

to disable internet access by kmplayer

In Windows computers,

Method 1 (easy)

Go to internet explorer Internet options (on Internet Properties window) Security tab click on Restricted site click (button below) sites add this URL on that box player.kmpmedia.net
& Close.

Method 1 (for Pros)

Open 'host' file in windows

c:/windows/system32/drivers/etc/host

add

127.0.0.1 player.kmpmedia.net

Using one of above methods you can prevent the kmplayer to connect to the internet and no sidebar will appear!

And,
if you don't know how to do this, you can use version like Use KMPlayer 3.6.0.87.exe witch was comes with ads free.

player.kmpmedia.net

It's a good method indeed !!!!!!!!
