Any shortcut to resize a window to half top/bottom of screen?
Unfortunately there are no shortcuts for that.
The closest method I found is to use win + left + up
and win + left + down
to have the windows in the top and bottom left quarters. It is important to press left before pressing up/down, otherwise the window will maximize/minimize before docking.
Then you have to resize manually each of the window's width.
There is also a PowerToys from Microsoft. I.e. you don't need to trust a third-party developer and it's free. It has a feature called FancyZones where you can divide your monitors into zones(grid) and have the windows snap to that grid that you have configured.
I found a few apps that do this.
- AquaSnap: Free for personal use.
- WinSnap: Has a "free download" button right next to a "purchase lifetime license" button, so the "free download" is probably just a trial license.
- MaxTo (formerly WinSplit Revolution): Not free.
- DisplayFusion Pro
- NVIDIA nView: pretty buggy (at least on Windows 10), but this is what I eventually settled on. Lets you partition your display any way you want.
