IDEA: drag window to edge automatically resizes it

<< < (16/146) > >>

ajp:
I'm sure I keep an interesting script for this (right now I just right-click maximize to get 100% tall by 80% width window aligned to the left of the screen), but not at this computer. I'll look for it at home and bring it.

Ok... Here's gridmove beta4. This should be the last beta (i hope ;) ).
I applied the method i mentioned before, now it works like this:

If you drag a window using it's part that is closer to the caption (definable in WindowPercentage, i set it to 20% of the caption), the window is always snapped. Also, now both methods use the second gui overlay, as like this it's possible to use it.
If you drag a window using the rest of the caption, the script does nothing.

Also fixed:
The screensize problem, now the gui shows for all the screen in every computer (notice that if you have a dual-screen layout, you need to change it in the options at the beggining of the script's source).
Added commands to the Win+G hotkey:

* 'r' restarts the script
* 'e' exits the script
* 'mbutton' disables /enables the mbutton interaction
* 'm' maximizes / restores the active window
* any number of the grid moves the current window to that grid element.
* any number out of the grid minimizes the window.Fixed a small problem with the transparencies
Fixed the problem with the position of the triggers being a few pixels out.


This script still lacks lots of stuff (like decent options management), but at least now it's *almost* bug-free.


So... Tell me what you think about the new interaction.
.ahk Version
(it's now beta4, because beta3 was a test i made and didn't publish)

BTW... Anyone knows of a nice icon for this script?

@nudone: About your idea of having the window resize, maintaining it's width or height, i think i might have a way to do this. And it'd make much sense in this script. I'll try to make it work.

@kproth: Sorry for that bug, i think it's now fixed. Don't forget to set the ScreenHeight and ScreenWidth parameters right. (if you have 2 screens with different resolutions, set the parameters to the biggest height and biggest width).

nice to see you coming back to the old gridmove, jgpaiva  :D

i can see that the transparency is working better but i'll have to make a few changes to the script i think - my screen does't really suit the current grid layout.

i like the idea of dragging the titled part of the title bar to initiate gridmove - my final use will be very basic (i think) so i don't think i'd even need the grid popping up, so if you can allow that to be disabled i'd appreciate that.

keep up the great work...

Old? Nah! It's the best thing since sliced bread, i use it everyday, just haven't had much time to update it.

Notice that it might be a better idea to change the .ini file's grid, as you can use it throughout several versions, and you won't have to change the source everytime i update. (yes, i really should change the default grid, i also don't use it like that)

Would you consider this the best way for the script to work?

I hadn't thought of that, good point!
