That is a great idea! Even greater would be to extend this to a consistent way to manage windows whose title bar is above to upper screen edge.
Both Windows and Mac OS try pretty hard to avoid this, but with two monitors it happens every now and then--especially when unpluggin/plugging the secondary monitor.
Without the title bar, it can be really hard to get the window back on the screen. Usually involves, if possible, resizing the window so it shows on both screens or unplugging/re-plugging the secondary monitor.
- x3c 15y agoIn windows, it's easy. Press alt+<space> and then 'm' and then arrow keys till the window is in frame and finally 'enter' when you are done. Even easier is to use Win+<arrow keys> to get window to a particular boundary of the screen, but when you restore the frame, it will still be in the 'half out of screen' position.
- prewett 15y agoI really miss Linux's Alt-drag to move a window, which would fix this problem. I also wish MacOS and Windows actually let you move a window's titlebar offscreen.
