Which... first appeared in April 2011. See this old blog post, describing the brand new grid-selection feature of Moom 1.2: https://manytricks.com/blog/?p=1297 https://manytricks.com/blog/?p=1297 So that should be interesting. This patent may also cover the window arrangement widget in Adobe's products, which seems to date back to at least 2011 (google for 'adobe application frame'): http://egypt.urnash.com/media/blogs.dir/1/files/2017/05/Screen-Shot-2017-05-14-at-10.24.57-AM.png http://egypt.urnash.com/media/blogs.dir/1/files/2017/05/Scre... ...but somehow I doubt they'll be suing Adobe until they've successfully gone after all the other folks who independently invented something similar to their patent.
