- philliphaydon 4y agoIt’s the same feature. Zoom. As it’s called in MacOS. And it resizes vertically only most of the time.
- maleldil 4y agoIt's not the same experiece as maximising on Windows. AFAIK, Zoom expands the window to match the content size, and many apps seem to not think you need the full screen. The only way to replicate the Windows behaviour of truly maximising is to use third-party tools like Rectangle.
- DHPersonal 4y agoIt definitely took me some time to get used to the way window management works on the Mac, but now it makes sense to me and I am okay with it. MacOS works better for me when I send my full-screen programs to their own desktop (the green button) than to double-click the title bar like I would in Windows. With the Magic Trackpad swipe navigation available to me, I can easily flip between programs in full-screen mode. Some parts of the operating systems are 1:1 and others need a little bit of mental reprogramming.
