Moom allows you to easily move and zoom windows—on one display, or to another display—using either the mouse or the keyboard. Moom lets you...

• Hover over the green button and choose from five preset size/location options in a pop-up palette
• Use a grid to 'draw' a window's desired size and location
• Define custom controls to move and zoom, move to other display, center, resize, and more
• Chain custom controls together to execute complex window management tasks
• Save window layouts to easily recreate a desired window arrangement at any time
• Automatically activate saved window layouts on changes in monitor layout, as in when you disconnect from your work display and then open your laptop at home
• Use keyboard mode to do all of this, and more, without ever touching a mouse

Once you've tried Mooming your windows, you'll never go back to simply moving and zooming them again.

is there one? i know windows tried in 7 but its so lovely there that its essentially useless. because i dont hate myself i havent used windows newer than 7 but if theres one thing i know about microsoft is that they introduce half baked ideas and progressively make them worse so im sure it peaked with aero

i do know ill never find out if they fixed it because only an idiot would use windows by choice

newer versions of windows use snapping to edges just fine, and windows 10 now automatically lets a second window taking up the remaining space on the screen

windows has the good and important parts of this feature though (snapping windows to take an area of the screen in a semi-maximized sort of way), it is literally the only ui innovation microsoft has brought about since windows 95, so i will give it to them
