href="http://www.ghacks.net/2009/02/24/maxto-divides-the-computer-monitor/">Maxto</a>, <a
href="http://www.ghacks.net/2008/12/10/window-management-software-taekwindow/">Taekwindow</a> or <a
href="http://www.ghacks.net/2008/05/25/freesnap-resize-windows-with-the-keyboard/">Freesnap</a>. The software program is completely portable and should run on most versions of the Windows operating system. The software program is placing an icon into the Windows System Tray that contains information about its functions and possibilities to kill the application if it is no longer needed.</p><p><a
href="https://sites.google.com/site/guerchele/Home/software/download">Win Layout </a>adds 33 new keyboard shortcuts to the Windows operating system that can be used to manipulate open windows easily. Most of the keyboard shortcuts make use of a combination of the Windows, Alt and CTRL keys plus the numpad.</p><p>Pressing the Windows key plus the numpad keys 1-9 will move the active window into the corner of the windows desktop. Adding the alt key to that combination will move the active window and resize it at the same time. Resizing will either change the size of the window in half or a fourth depending on the numpad key that is pressed.</p><p><span

The difference between resizing and snapping is the fact that the resizing shortcut will always result in the same window size while snapping windows will not.</p><p>The remaining keyboard shortcuts make it possible to increase or resize the window size and to move the active window one pixel into a specific direction.</p><p>Win Layout uses roughly 6 Megabytes of computer memory while running. Not really lightweight but acceptable for users who use the software program extensively.</p> ]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>http://www.ghacks.net/2009/03/11/windows-desktop-management-software-win-layout/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>3</slash:comments> </item> </channel> </rss>
