You don’t even have to use the green zoom button. Just double click the top of the window like in every other OS. The difference is that zooming a window is not the same as maximising. It makes the window as big as the content it contains.
Also you can double click the edge of any window to extend it to the edge of the screen.
I really don’t get the obsession for tiling windows personally. It’s not part of my workflow.
- wyclif 5y agoApple calls the green button “zoom” in their documentation, but its default function is fullscreen, not zoom. I've always found that a bit disorienting. I guess Apple just decided that "zoom" is better as a name because it's one short word instead of two.
- knolan 5y agoYes, they switched the behaviour shortly after they added the full screen mode merging it with a separate full screen icon they had introduced. The old behaviour is retained by option clicking the green button. It's annoying and I wish they kept it as was.
