Organize and Manage Windows With Screen Utility

Organize and Manage Windows With Screen Utility "MaxTo"

This article is mainly for the high resolution junkies running 1680 x 1050 or higher.  There comes a time when you have multiple windows open and want to view them all at once. 

In order to do that, you must re size every window to fit.  While it doesn't sound like much work, resizing windows over, and over, and over again can get very annoying.  The answer:  MaxTo.

MaxTo is a small Windows program that divides your monitors into regions. When you maximize a window, it will no longer fit the entire screen, but only the region it was maximized into.

Your windows are neatly organized into the grid you have defined when they are maximized. MaxTo has been described as a tiling window manager.

MaxTo, developed by Vegard Andreas Larsen, is extremely lightweight and serves its purpose extremely well. 

The program is simple to use - just install the program and specify the regions on your screen by dragging the boxes around. 

Then, every time you maximize a window, it will only maximize to the region you specify.

Here's a short video I made showing MaxTo usage.  I'm using the same screen regions in the picture above. 

I apologize that the video is so small; my screen resolution during the video was 1920 x 1200 so the video needed to be scaled down in order to fit the page.
