Possible to "snap" top/bottom instead of just left/right in Windows 7?
No. The only snap options available are:
- left half snap (Windows + left)
- right half snap (Windows + right)
- full screen height snap (Windows + shift + up)
- maximized snap (Windows + up)
- "un-snap" (Windows + down)
- snap to next monitor / display (Windows + shift + (left or right))
Edit: other awesome combinations you might like:
- minimize all (Windows + m)
- minimize all but active window (Windows + Home)
- Aero peek (view Desktop, all Windows become transparent) (Windows + space)
I use the following steps to accomplish this:
- Windows + D (to minimize all windows)
- then use my mouse to place the windows I want to stack in the general placement on each monitor (don't bother resizing them)
- then right click on the taskbar and select "Show windows stacked" from the context menu then restore any other windows that I want
Note: You must minimize any windows that you don't want stacked. This is what step 1 is intended to do.
WindowSpace provides this functionality. To do what you're asking for:
- Go to the "Moving and Resizing" tab in
Settings
- For "Top edge:", choose "Move to the top side"
- For "Bottom edge:", choose "Move to the bottom side"
