Coming from Windows, I have just 2 small wishes: ability to drag windows to the edges to quickly organize them side by side, and ability to disable the drag lock - you currently either have to click or wait for a second after dragging anything.
- hiichbindermax 5y agoYou could try out Rectangle [1]. Other alternatives would be magnet (paid) or veeer (free). [1]: https://github.com/rxhanson/Rectangle https://github.com/rxhanson/Rectangle
- gsinclair 5y agoIn Mac, you can tile two windows on the screen to organise them side by side. See the Window menu. I can’t comment on the second wish.

- theshrike79 5y agoMagnet can do the edge-drag thing: https://magnet.crowdcafe.com https://magnet.crowdcafe.com It's actually faster just to use the keyboard shortcuts though.
- mraison 5y agoOne of the first things I do when setting up a new Mac is to enable “three finger drag”. I’m pretty sure it also removes the drag lock. You’ll have to get used to the new way of dragging things though.
- rzzzt 5y agoIndeed, drag lock does not apply to the three finger gesture. The option has moved to accessibility settings from trackpad in recent OSX releases, though, so for a while I could not find it anywhere.
- Joeri 5y agoFor the first I started out with magnet, but ended up with moom. Hovering over the green button in the title bar then shows fine-grained controls to dock the window to a half of the screen, or do basic tiling.
