Try it. Move your Steam window around. See how it snaps to the edges of your display(s)?

Why is Steam the only program (I know) that does that natively? I would love for ALL my Windows programs to do that (without installing 3rd party softwares/scripting).

EDIT : I'm on Win10.

Windows key + left or right arrow key will blow your mind.

That doesn't really help in my experience because this state is not saved. You have to do tricks in order to get it saved like move the window a bit or resize it etc.

Check out PowerToys

Also up and down after left right

I know this shortcut, and it resizes the window to half-screen. Got any shortcut that does the same, without resizing?

Check out Multitasking settings and see if any of those do what you are asking.

IIRC, Windows key and Up arrow will maximize it. Not aware of a way to snap a window to the top without it changing size. Would be pretty cool.

You might want to check out Windows PowerToys and specifically Fancy Zones. You can create your own areas to snap windows into. Still not quite what you're looking for but might provide an alternative approach.

No such thing. Ask away!

The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:

Rules (interactive)


Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.

Rule 2- Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.

Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.



Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.

Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.

That's it.



Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.

Questions which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.



Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.

Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.

On fridays, you are allowed to post meme and troll questions, on the condition that it's in text format only, and conforms with our other rules. These posts MUST include the [NSQ Friday] tag in their title.

If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.



Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.

If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.

Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.



Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.



Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.

Let everyone have their own content.



Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.
