The town of West Seneca is enforcing its sidewalk snow removal ordinance to make sure people are not forced to walk out in the street because of snow covered sidewalks.
Most businesses along Union Road have complied but the town will send out warning letters to property owners who fail to do so. That could be followed by a court appearance ticket and the possibility of a $250 dollar fine for those don't remove the snow.
That prompted a caller to our tipline to question why there was still snow on the sidewalks of the bridge which carries Union Road over Cazenovia Creek. That bridge is used by some people to walk to the nearby Southgate Plaza or other businesses.
Since Union Road is State Route 277, the state DOT will plow the road. But it turns out that state law requires the host community to clear snow from bridge sidewalks. 2 On Your Side contacted the West Seneca Highway Department and eventually a plow truck did respond to use a wing plow to clear the bridge sidewalk.
Another caller informed us about snow on the sidewalk of the Union Road overpass over the Thruway. We contacted Amherst Highway about that situation. Initially they told us the state was responsible but Highway Superintendent Robert Anderson later said the town would take care of the sidewalk on Monday.

Having come from Windows 7 this is one feature I missed. My only criticism is that the target areas in the corners are small, on the left side I dont always find the right position to snap to the left/top/corner it works along the top edge but not top/left/side edge. 5/5 at the moment but 6/5 with bigger target areas! Thank You!

I don't know if this is something BetterSnapTool could do, but Chris's comment above reminded me that I've always wanted a way to delay Exposé's hot corners slightly. I have upper-left set for Exposé to show all windows, for example, but frequently I'll hit that target by mistake for a second and it's kind of jarring. Even a delay of .5 sec or so would really help that.

Just purchased BetterSnapTool from the Apple App store. I'm only looking to do one thing: I want to automatically resize a window to fill my ENTIRE screen (Maximize?).
I set your App up to Maximize if I Right-Click on the GREEN +…but it doesn't actually Maximize, as I can see desktop stuff on the right-hand side.
I've heard great things about your App, so I'm sure there is a way to do what I want. Please help?
7. Darryl Miller Says:
July 12th, 2011 at 12:56 am
Okay, so it's working a little better. But still having one issue.
I'm trying to Maximize the window in Microsoft Word For Mac 2011, and now when I Right-Click on the Green +, it does seem to Maximize. However, I am still able to Manually resize/drag the window so it moves downward a tiny bit further. Note: The Top, Left, and Right sides are all Maximized, BUT the Bottom is not quite Maximized. Almost, but not quite.
I really want an App that can Automatically Maximize without having to resize the window myself by manually dragging the lower right corner. Any suggestions are appreciated. Thanks!
8. saintberry Says:
July 12th, 2011 at 3:47 pm
This doesn't work very well with a dual monitor set up. If you have your main monitor to the left, to snap to the right hand side you have to drag to the far right of the secondary monitor and it will only take up 1/2 of that monitor.
Do you have a fix? This tool is pretty useless to me without.
Also with spaces enabled. If you drag to one side and there is a space on that side the window is placed on the new space, not on the one you were intending.
This tool is a cool idea, but needs a lot of refinement.

14. Andreas Hegenberg Says:

installed better snap tool to support you a bit (lion)
i used better touch tool for some time.
1) i miss the possibility to assign the "three finger tap" (touchpad) to "middle mouse button" in lion. i think i used to set it up in BTT. can i do this in BST as well or do i need to turn back to BTT?
2) in BST i cant bring the settings window up. starting BST does not show anything (snapping works, seems to be active). can it be that i deactivated sth. in the settings? how can i show the settings screen?
best regards,

I just installed the app and immediately noticed that when I snap a window to one of the predefined quadrants, the window doesn't necessarily "size" to that quadrant causing overlap with other snapped windows…. I wasn't expecting that and hope that I'm missing something in the preferences… I would prefer no overlap so i can read the scrolled content of one window and enter that data in another window without overlapping windows without focus. Is that the way its supposed to work?
I'm running OSX Lion on Macbook pro 17.
29. Michael Says:
July 24th, 2011 at 9:06 am
After updated to lion, the animation of the resizing the windows does not work after every reboot, and required manually disabling and re-enabling in the menu. The machine is early 2011 MBP 15″ and the version of BST is 1.2.5
Thank you

I **love** BetterSnapTool. Use it about 30 times a day.
Just upgraded to Lion and while BST works, it won't start-up. By that i mean, I have BST as a "Login Item" — to launch at login, in Lion. The app doesn't activate when I start the Mac. When I manually start the app (either by double-clicking on the icon in the Application folder) or by opening via Spotlight, then the app works perfectly.
Is there an issues with BST in Lion re start-up?
32. Eugene Says:
July 27th, 2011 at 6:14 am
Hi Andreas,
Great little programs you've developed…it's definitely added very useful functionality to my Mac. I bought BetterSnapTool mostly to support your efforts because I appreciate BetterTouchTool so much. BST looks pretty useful too.
I just have one request for BST; can you add some snaps where it goes to the designated corners but AT THE CURRENT WINDOW SIZE? Right now it snaps to the designated corners but is resized to half, third or quarter. Many times I have the windows sized perfectly, but I just need it snapped to a corner.
Thanks so much for your efforts with these programs!
33. Josep Says:
July 28th, 2011 at 10:48 am
Excellent tool. Just bought it and Love it. Just one suggestion, it'd be great if you could center and resize to a different % of the screen than what can be set in the "specific settings for current app". It's great to be able to snap an app to the left or right to quickly have a side by side view of two different windows each taking 50% of the screen width but, sometimes, you just want to focus on working on one window, so what you want is to center that one window but use a reasonable amount of your screen realstate. As BetterSnapTool works you can do that but taking just 50% of the screenwidth. If I could configure BST to center&resize the window to 75% w & 100% h without losing the ability to snap left/right at 50-50% it would make this tool just perfect — for the record, SizeUp allows doing that.

Hello – Awesome tool you've developed here.
I have three monitors in portrait mode and use the the left and center monitors for a large excel spreadsheet, and then the right monitor for the PDFs/internet. Perhaps I missed it, but is there a way to have a window snap to the "left two-thirds" of the monitor? Similar to the options to snap to the "left third', "middle third", and "right third".
Or is there a way to create custom snaps?
35. Andreas Hegenberg Says:
August 2nd, 2011 at 5:12 pm
@Bob custom snaps will be available with version 1.3. For now you can only customize them per application (click on the icon in the menubar and select specific settings for currecnt application")
36. Bob Says:

First of all, thanks so much for this, it's a wonderful tool!
I'm using BetterTouchTool on Lion (updated to the latest alpha version), and have also tried BetterSnapTool, but the problem which I have encountered is that the Restore Old Windows Size if Window is Dragged Away Again feature will not work. With BetterSnapTool it will work from the menubar, but not just by moving the window away from the edge of the screen. Are there any preferences or settings that might be interfering with this function?
Again, thank you so much!

Hi, love this tool. Could you possibly add one more extra? An option to bring any window or the desktop into focus when the mouse pauses on it for 0.25 seconds or so? For example when, switching to Skype, you could just flick my mouse over the screen and start typing. This would be great. Thanks for making this app!
42. Russell Stewart Says:
August 14th, 2011 at 2:32 am
Andreas, you've really got some great features here. I am a previous user of MagicPrefs, but I have found that the addition of window snapping, tiptaps, keyboard shortcuts, etc… has made BetterTouchTool well worth the switch. That being said, I am also someone who *upgraded to Lion, realized that Mission Control is significantly underpowered, and was forced to revert to Snow Leopard (SL). If you were to add functionality for spaces back to Lion, you could pick up a lot more users.
43. Luke Harrison Says:
August 25th, 2011 at 6:02 pm
Hullo, BST is a great app, congrats. Unfortunately for me it refuses to open when I switch on my mac, even though it is in the system prefs list to do so and also ticked in the app itself. Any ideas? I'm on Snow Leopard on a 13″ macbook.

The "animation" that happens when moving a window to a corner doesn't seem to work when using only Apple's Magic Trackpad.

I own bettersnap tool & think it is great. One thing that would make it greater is as follows. Whenever I switch my macbook pro from laptop to connected to an external monitor (I do this 10 times a day at work & home), the size of the windows does not stay the same in relative terms (i.e. if I am connected to a monitor & put a window in left half & another in right half, when I unplug monitor, the windows now do not fill half the screen any more due to change in resolution, so I have to repeat the bettersnaptool commands/shortcuts….everytime…same thing when I plug the laptop back to monitor after a meeting). If there was an option to have the software automatically resize when snap was applied, after resolution changes, this would be GRRREAT.
Hope you can get to it, I tell everyone to purchase your tool!
52. Scott Reeves Says:
November 7th, 2011 at 3:21 pm
I've pinged you a couple times on Twitter about this, but no response.
I'm having an issue where BetterSnapTool opens on login, but not all of the functionality works, i.e. no icon in the menu bar, no keyboard shortcuts work, and I can snap to the top of the screen by dragging a window but not the sides. A relaunch fixes all the issues but I'm sick of doing it each time I restart my machine! The issue remains in BST 1.2.8, and this happens on two of my machines, which are both running 10.6.8.
Please contact me if there's any logs or anything I can send, I'd really like to get this solved. Thanks!

try to remove BetterSnapTool from your loginitems (System Preferences => Users => Login Items). Then add it again manually and uncheck the hide checkbox. (like this: http://d.pr/ONAf )
I hope this helps, if not please send me a mail to email@example.com

Hey Andreas,
I just downloaded bettersnaptool and I love it! I have one simple modification that I think you should build in that should be a piece of cake. You should allow the user to customize the sizes of the spaces that the app is dropped into. For instance, on my computer I like everything to be snapped to the left and be the full size of the screen except for a little vertical bar on the right side so that I can see my one column of icons (Macintosh HD, a folder or two, you get it). It would be great to be able to drag a window to the top and, rather than it making it go all the way full screen, be able to customize that size so that it doesn't maximize all the way and leaves that bar. (If you would like to email me, I can send you a screen shot of exactly what I am talking about) Thanks for the app it is awesome!
57. Vincent Levinger Says:
November 17th, 2011 at 8:32 pm
Hey! So my brother was telling me about how he wants to have defined sizes for different actions. I thought you could take it one step further and implement custom actions for mouse position. For example, if you have a full screen application and you wanted to see the right side of the screen to see mac HD or other items, you could simply leave your mouse on the right side of the screen for X amount of seconds. After that time period, the window could automatically move over to reveal your desktop so you could access those items. After you were done, the screen could revert to full size. This would allow for users to still have the full screen experience, but still have access to desktop items.
I'm not sure if any of that really made sense, if you need more explanation just email me and i'll try to draw up something?

Hello, I want to fire a bug report: I have bought the BetterSnapTool. AppStore says I have the latest version. It works just fine. But…
I also use (as I have to – a due by my company) the OpenOffice office suit. Since some time I am having the serios trouble with that SW. Whwnever I doubleclick certain user interface elements (e.g. the content navigator), the OpenOffice either crashes or freezes.
I spent a long long time suspecting that the OpenOffice is buggy, the OSX Lion Java is buggy, the OSX itself is buggy…
After reporting bugs on all sides, I had an idea: Disabled the BetterSnapTool. And voila – all the problems with the OpenOffice are GONE!!! Start the BetterSnapTool back -> the OpenOffice troubles are back to!!! Fully reproducible, perfectly consistent behavior.
I guess that the BetterSnapTool, in order to do its marvelous functions, needs to hook up on the sysem events. And the hook breaks some other apps (in my case just the OpenOffice).
I stopped using the BetterSnapTool for now as the OpenOffice is crutial for my job. But I still LOVE the BetterSnapTool…
I hope you are going to fix this problem – not for those money but for that great functionality!!!
65. Andreas Hegenberg Says:
November 24th, 2011 at 3:59 pm
@Jiri BTT only uses standard API but it may be that Open Office has a bug which causes it to crash if this API is called. A workaround for you may be to disable BetterSnapTool for Open Office (see http://d.pr/9LCr, click on disable BetterSnapTool for current application while you are in Open Office)

Hi, I think BetterTouchTool and BetterSnapTool are excellent and well done for the good work. Just one question/suggestion for the future – why does BetterSnap not support full screen mode like BetterTouchTool? Would it be possible to add this in a future release? Also I note that maximise doesn't seem to work with Microsoft Office.
But apart for that these apps are really cool. And the KeyboardCleaner is fab too!
I for one hope that Apple doesn't implement Sandboxing.

Just like most writers before me, I've got nothing but praise for BST. Long time user, and I've tried most apps targeting the sam functionality, but always come back to BST thanks to it's stability. One feature that I'd really like to see though, would be a little twist to the keyboard shortcut.
I'd love to have one initial shortcut to engage the BST menu, but then be able to – while having BST in focus – just bind single keys to activate a certain mode. For example:
My global shortcut is CMD+SHIFT+D for BST. With the menu open I'd like to be able to just press 'A' (or whatever key I decide to assign to a certain mode) to maximize, 'S' for left half, 'D' for right half Z,X,C for each third and so on.
I think this would be an awesome addition to the already superb app which never gets any rest at my computer

Still having the startup/login issue with BetterSnapTool 1.3.1 on OS X 10.6.8 as mentioned in comments #52, #54, #67. I have one other app from the MAS (Houdini) that behaves similarly. At least with Houdini I'm able to work around the bug by launching the app via AppleScript, but this workaround doesn't help with BetterSnapTool.
I've lost track of how many times I've tried removing it and re-adding it to my login items. Please do something to address this bug, it's very annoying to have to quit and relaunch after every reboot
83. Devon Campbell Says:

BetterSnapTool is great, but it doesn't seem to work with PyCharm.
For instance, if I drag the window to the right, it will resize, but it is not in the correct position.There's a gap about the width of my dock (which is on the right). Then, if I try to drag the window to the correct position, it reverts back to its previous size.

is there a way to snap a window to another?
This would help a lot!
Example: Window one (on the left) fills about one third of the screen.
It would be great if you could snap left of window two (right beside window one) either to the other window or the right of two to the right screen border or both.
The last one would be kind of horizontal fill.
Perhaps even apple would like this idea? (Perhaps a new Feature of Mountain Lion ;-))
All the best, Palama

I'm having issues with MS Excel and the action assigned to right click the green maximize button (my action is to dock window to right half). This action works on other apps but in excel it acts like a left click (so instead of right half, it just does Maximize…similarly, the orange minimize button just minimizes when I do a right click). Other actions like double clicking on titlebar works for Excel.
Is there an expected fix for this?

Thanks for your help
94. Vijay Nagarajan Says:
June 12th, 2012 at 9:52 am
Great tool. Love it. However, I have a couple of feature requests.
1. Could you add the ability to just fill up the height (minus the dock area, of course), but leave the width and position unmodified.
2. Since OS X now has the ability to resize windows from any of the window edges, double clicking a window border while the resize mouse cursor is ON, will expand that edge alone to the nearest screen border. For e.g. Double click top window edge will expand window upto menu bar, but leave all other edges intact, double clicking a corner (when north-east, south-east, south-west or north-west mouse cursor is visible) will diagonally expand to the screen corner, but leave the other two edges.
3. Finally, an option to show fill up height when dragging the window edge to the top before showing the option to fill screen. So it would be like say, I drag the window top edge to the menu bar, a overlay to show just height fill up and then after a delay, the fill screen overlay. Of course, the height fill up should work even when I drag the bottom edge upto the dock below.
Thank you and once again, a great tool!

Im really happy with this software, thanks. I recommended it at a user group presentation that I did a few weeks ago (June 2012 meeting of Delphi Australia User Group, Perth branch)
I have some enhancement requests for keyboard shortcuts:
1) Snap to right half should be changed to rotate through monitors
I am using the "snap to right hand side" hotkey with multiple monitors. I would like the window to snap to the right half of monitor one. Then, when I press the hot key again, I would like it to move to the left half of monitor two, then then right half of monitor two. In other words, the window should rotate through the halves of the monitor when pressed multiple times. Ditto for the "snap to left half" keys. Excuse the crude graphics to try and illustrate this
97. Scott H Says:
July 4th, 2012 at 3:56 am
Sorry, I forgot to include the other enhancement request
Please add a "rotate through corners without resizing" hotkey so I can use one key to move the window to the corner. I dont want 4 keys to do this (one for each corner), one key is sufficient. I have used other software on MS-Windows that did this and it felt very natural with one key rather than having four keys
great product

Is there anyway to resize all windows at once? When using external monitors I often find that nearly all of my windows need to be re-adjusted…maximizing all of them would be an easy way to get them under control and start working again when switching so many times in a day.

Hi Andreas,
Je mehr ich BetterSnapTool entdecke, desto nützlicher finde ich es! SUPER 😀
Hier (trotzdem) ein Verbesserungsvorschlag:
Bei den Keyboard Shortcuts vermisse ich ganz, ganz schmerzlich: 2 Drittel rechts bzw. 2 Drittel links.
Noch cooler wäre natürlich, man könnte die selbst definierten Fensterbereiche mit Shortcuts belegen. Aber wenn das nicht geht, dann füge doch bitte, bitte 2/3 Fenstergrössen ein
Kann ich BetterSnapTool aus dem AppStore ZUSAMMEN mit Deinem BetterTOUCH Tool (auf Snow Leopard) benutzen, oder beißt sich das irgendwie?
Übrigens: über BetterTouchTool habe ich so viel Lob gehört. Ich glaube, keiner wäre Dir böse, wenn Du es im AppStore anbieten würdest…
Ach, und ich soll ausrichte und fragen, warum BetterSnapTool nicht auch auf Deutsch lokalisiert ist (wo so eine coole App nun schon mal aus deutschen Landen herkommt 😉
Grüsse nach München

Sorry if this has been said already, but when opening a new window, it would be nice if the new window could unsnap as well. For example, after making a window full screen, opening a new window (cmd+n) makes a window that is also full screen. it would be nice if moving this window would go back to the smaller size before the maximization.

BST is a great little app, solves most of those annoying window management problems in OSX (why Apple thinks switching between full screen aps is the answer to window management is beyond me).
However, I do have one app that it doesn't work with, which is MonoDevelop. The app doesn't respond to BST.
Any chance of fixing this ? I suspect the answer is no, but thought I'd ask anyway.

BST has shortcuts to move a window without resizing it to the top left and right corners. That is *so* close to what I want! I would love to see other shortcuts that move without resizing:
* Move to bottom corners
* Move to top or bottom edge, without changing horizontal position
* Move to left or right edge, without changing vertical position

Just left a review on the App Store saying this, thought I'd put it here too:
I've rated 2 stars as for some reason (perhaps only on a 15″ RMPB, which is what I have) the resizing is completely broken. For instance, snapping the App Store to the right ends up with it taking up about 70% of the space, and snapping Mail to the left takes up about 60% of the space. Which makes BST not so helpful, as I just end up with overlapping windows…

I don't see a "SnapAreas" menu in my drop down list. Because of this, I am unable to save a pre-sized window configuration.

Hey, thanks for the wonderful work. I have been using BST and have had problems with my log file filling with WindowServer bad tracking area requests and blocking for long periods. I believe these are related to custom snap areas and maybe multiple spaces?
Aside from this, I wonder what the interplay is between BTT and BST and whether BTT is a superset or not? I am about to try using BTT instead of BST and may have to forego the custom snap areas and sizes if need be.
I was also getting frequent cases where BST would forget about my custom areas and stop tracking those until I restarted it.

I love this app, and now that I have it, I don't know what I would do without it. I do have a feature request:
If any two windows are snapped and their borders touch, I would like to have the ability to resize them both at the same time by grabbing the common edge. If needed, maybe you could have it only do that on a right click. This way if you only need a small amount of screen real estate for one window, you can get to use it on the other without having to manually resize both manually, which is kind of the point of using a tool like this.
120. Maurice G. Says:

I just bought a MacBook Pro after using Windows 7, and I was so happy to find your app! Thanks, it works great.
I have two suggestions to make it even better:
1) Is it possible to drag a common edge of two windows, so that they resize together? For example, if two windows take up the whole screen, 50% each, it would be great to be able to drag one edge to rearrange them to be say 80% and 20%.
2) Is there a Windows version available? I know, funny question, but I have an old computer with Windows XP and I don't want to go through the pain of reloading the operating system when the only feature I really want from Windows 7 is the AeroSnap.

Up to now I've only been using the snapping features of BetterTouchTool, so I don't know if BetterSnapTool supports what I'm looking for.
I'm using SIMBL and MenuAndDockless to hide the menubar for most of my applications. I like having as much screen estate as possible without having to resort to using fullscreen. However I found that the snapping features still respect the hidden menubar and therefore leave a space at the top.
Adding support for this would probably be too much to ask (especially seeing how I'm probably not representing a lot of people with this), but is there a way in BetterSnapTool to offset the maximize a few pixels to the top so that it fills out the entire screen? That would truly be fantastic!

Hey, thank you so much for BetterTouchTool and BetterSnapTool, they have improved my life so much! I wanted to chime in with the "please support X11/xquartz" but people have been asking for it for a while, and so I wanted to know if you needed some help?
Apparently X11 is a pain in the butt in a lot of ways. The only way I've managed to programmatically move X11 windows around is with the very excellent "xdotool", which is available via MacPorts.
xdotool getactivewindow windowmove 100 100 # Moves to 100,100
I don't know if this is helpful at all. If when X11 is active you still consume keystrokes, it may be helpful. Otherwise, a bunch of other attempts I made didn't work out. Oh well!
Thanks again for great software!

Thank you for developing this great tool. I'd like to add yet another request for x11/xquartz support. Since I spend a good deal of time in x11 windows, this would double the usefulness of bettersnap for me, and cause me to sing praises in the App Store.

The tool works great and is cheap. My only concern is that maximization (either by dragging or by double-clicking on the tile bar) does not work properly for Emacs when multiple frames are open (it works on the main frame, but it maximizes incorrectly the others).

Hi … Great app ! I wonder if it can do this for me:
For, I don't really know the reason, I like very much to enlarge the window I am working on leaving a small space between all 4 borders. I would like to be able to specify the exact space in pixels. This way the window always seems to float all over my desktop.
Can your app help me with this ?

Please patent this utility and sell it. Wonder why Apple has not bought BST and integrate it to it's OS ?

(1) I bought BetterTouchTool and run it on 10.8.3. When I try to resize a window vertically by pressing a key combination (I configured fn-ctrl in the preferences) and then moving the mouse, it only works with a sometimes signifiant lag and is not fluent at all. This is especially true when trying to resize a maximized window vertically. Resizing horizontally works better, but also not perfect. The behaviour is not consistent across windows, however. Some windows work fine. The terminal window seems to have a consistent lag for vertical resizing. Can you reproduce this issue?
(2) I used to have Compiz on Linux. If you press alt and the middle mouse button in this Window Manager, the window would resize from the closest corner, which makes much more sense in my opinion than always bottom right corner. Might be worth thinking about for your tools.
Best wishes,

The tool does have issues, I have a clean 10.8.3 install and it doesn't work properly. Or is the source code somewhere available so that others can work on it?

I've been using BTT and I was looking into BetterSnapTool, but I wanted to make a feature request. Would it be possible to make it so windows snap to the edge of the screen when they are a certain number of pixels from the edge, lets say 2 or 3. Instead of snapping and resizing/zooming to take the left half of the screen for example, I just want to drag a window to the edge and have it snap into place along the edge without any type of resizing.

I am using an external monitor as the primary monitor for my MacBook Air, while keeping the MacBook Air also open. (I do this because otherwise wifi is very slow). I also do not mirror the displays since otherwise the resolution decreases. When I move the window to the edge to snap it goes to the mac's monitor, which I don't want.

Hi, I have enjoyed using BetterSnapTool. However I have encountered a bug? or a setting which I don't know know to change. When I have defined/activated Snap Areas whenever I press the SHIFT key the application is switches to that of the most recently defined Snap Area. This is not a problem when I am only using the one application (e.g. web browsing) but really annoying when I then start another application where I need to press Shift. I stopped using the Snap Areas because of this, but I would really like to use it without the bug. Is there a solution to this?

Just wanted to suggest a feature that would make this even more useful for me. Would it be possible to add an option to resize based on pixel-width, not percentage of screen? For example, whether I'm snapping my browser on my 11″ Air, or my 24″ monitor, I'd really like to snap it to the 1024 pixels on the right or left of the display, not a percentage of the screen size.

I think BST is the best app for window management nowadays. But it doesn't work in Mavericks. It requires API from the old accessibility menu location. In Mavericks it has moved to security & privacy preferences. And even if it checked, BST can't be started.

175. Andreas Hegenberg Says:
November 23rd, 2013 at 2:36 pm
@Phil can you manually resize pages to fit the size to want? BetterSnapTool can only resize the windows to their minimum sizes, unfortunately Apple set a minimum width of 765 pixel for the Pages window, thus the minimum resolution of the screen would need to be 1530px in width to make it 50%.

Hi Andreas,
First, I would like to congratulate you on a great product! BetterSnapTool is especially good on a 27″ iMac. it's a great way to get the most out of the screen real estate.
Next, I really like all of the preset positions, and I would like to make a minor request that "Left two thirds" and "Right two thirds" be added to the preset positions in "Change Window Position / Size". I like having one third of my window for a text editor and two thirds for something else. It's just a personal preference.
Last, I would like to echo the other requests for X11/XQuartz support. Not only would I pay additional money for the feature, I would also offer to beta test. I spend most of my day using remote X11 windows, and I would really enjoy the support.

Hallo Andreas,
Benutze BetterSnapTool täglich. Der Funktionsumfang ist einfach genial. Drei Wünsche hätte ich trotzdem noch ;-).
– unter Extras kann der "Secondary click" definiert werden. Wenn ich die "Exit Prgram" Funktion wähle, schliesst sich das Programm nur wenn ich extrem präzise auf den kleinen runden Button klicke. Oft schliesst sich das Programm beim ersten Klick nicht sondern das Menu "Menu Leiste anpassen" erscheint. Beim zweiten Mal richtig zielen, dann schliesst sich Programm meistens. Wäre super, wenn sich die Programme immer gleich beim ersten Klick schliessen würden.
Leider kann man mit dieser Funktion auch das Finder-Fenster schliessen bzw. der Finder startet dann immer neu. Das macht aus meiner Sicht wenig Sinn. Evt. kann diese Funktion für den Finder deaktiviert werden.
– Für diverse Programme wie z.B. Adobe Dreamweaver funktioniert die Snap-Funktion ja nicht. Es wäre hilfreich, wenn bei diesen Programmen beim Snap to left, top etc. ein Hinweis erscheinen würde, dass diese Funktion für dieses Programm nicht zur Verfügung steht. Am Anfang wusste ich nie, ob dies nun ein Programmfehler ist oder ob diese Funktion für diese Programme nicht umsetzbar ist.
– Vielleicht gibt das BetterSnapTool ja auch mal auf deutsch 😉
Einfach geniales Tool. Vielen Dank.
187. FastZufrieden Says:

Bin gerade dabei die App zu testen und gefällt mir soweit ganz gut, ein ärgerliches Problem gibt es aber und zwar werden Fenster vom Finder nicht auf die ursprüngliche Größe zurückgeändert. Wenn ich etwa ein Fenster des Finders nach rechts ziehe und es den rechten halben Bildschirm füllt und ich es danach wieder löse, bleibt es bei der Größe wie rechts auf dem halben Bildschirm.
Ich konnte den Grund glaube ich identifizieren und zwar tritt das Problem nur dann auf, wenn die Finder Erweiterung TotalFinder läuft, auf die ich aber nie wieder verzichten möchte. Würde mich über ein Update freuen, wo das auch mit aktivem TotalFinder rund läuft, sonst sicher eine klasse App.

Is there any chance we could get some of the features from Zooom/2 in BetterSnapTool? It seems that Zooom has stopped being developed, but it has some really great features that I think would make BetterSnapTool even better.
The features are:
– Magnetics, which allow you to hold a key combo that grabs the window you are holding your mouse over and then you can move and snap the edge of your window to the edge of the screen, to the edge of other windows, or to a grid that fades in/out when you hold the key combo
– Window Size, when holding a key combo to move or resize a window you can turn on the option to show the window size in pixels as well as the X and Y position on the screen
Thanks for the great app! I love it!

– i.e. if i drag a window close to the edge (not the mouse pointer but the edge of the window close to the screen edge), have it "snap" so that its edge is exactly lined up with screen
— if I drag a window close to another window (again, not the point position, but the two windows' edges), have it "snap" so that it is exactly lined up with the other window
– Import/Export of custom snap areas

Great tool, a must-have.
Could I suggest some improvements to this great software ?
+ Snap Area : allow use of a joker character * instead of numeric values for sizes. * would mean « full width » or « full height » and will allow to define a snap zone that will work when the user (me) changes le screen resolution.
+ Shortcuts : we should be able to use the same shortcut for several window positions. using the shortcut twice will enable the secondary window position (if exists), a third use of the shortcut will enable the third window position, etc. Look at the Spectacle application (available into the App Store) : the default shortcut to move a window 50% left is option+command+left. If you use this shortcut several times, the window position will switch to 50% left, then 33%, then 66%. This allow to group multiple positions in only one easy-to-remember shortcut. I used to create snap zones to get the same 50% left, 33% left and 66%, but I have three shortcuts for them, not easy to remember. This improvement will help in this case.
Thanks for your attention. And again : great job ! You did it well.

I have purchased better snap tool thinking it was a paid for BTT. It looks like a nice tool, but without trackpad gestures it is not so useful to me, unfortunately. I use gestures exclusively for snapping windows to the left-half, right-half, maximize window, emulate middle mouse click, etc.
So, is there a way I can get BST to do the trackpad gestures?
208. Baptiste Pillot Says:

Suggested improvement :
That would great if we could remember the actual applications windows and link this "group of placed apps" to a keyboard shortcut.
Then each time we press the shortcut, all these windows may come back to they remembered position.
Optionnally, applications that were launched on "remember" but that are not here when the shortcut is pressed could automatically then be placed into the position we.
With it and my precedent suggestions, that tool will simply be more-than-perfect.

Hi Andreas
I am not getting the overlay in BetterSnapTool when hovering over the maximise button. How do I correct this?

Dear Andreas,
I'm using BetterSnapTool and Spaces on OS X Yosemite (10.10.1).
Unfortunately, my custom Snap Areas are displayed only on the very Space that is active when BetterSnapTool is launched.
As soon as I switch to a different Space, the custom Snap Areas become invisible, and no animation when snapping a window occurs. However, they continue to work! (When switching back to the previously active Space, the Snap Areas become visible again.) By contrast, the pre-defined "Snap to left," "Snap to right," and "Snap to top/Maximize" Snap Areas are shown on all Spaces.
(Adding the app-binding "com.hegenberg.BetterSnapTool" -> "AllSpaces" to ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.spaces.plist does not help.)
Would be very glad if you could fix this because apart from that glitch, BetterSnapTool is awesome.

Thanks for BetterSnapTool, after many different configurations of "window managers" and other utils I've settled for Karabiner and BST. In the spirit of "I'm open to suggestions", here's my request: would it be possible to add snapping to screen edges and window edges while moving/resizing windows?
213. Scott Gaffney Says:

I'm having the same issue as Jarret on reply/comment #197. That is, the WindowServer process will run 100% if I drag any window after BST has been running for 12 hours or so. I'm running Yosemite on a 2013 MacBook Air and purchased BST from the App Store.
If I quit BST, then WindowServer will immediately behave normally. If I start BST again, after another 12 hours of BST running, the same thing occurs again. Clearly there is some sort of interaction problem between them.
I don't use any other special third party video/screen/desktop applications, so perhaps there is not a third application involved in this behavior. Seems to be just WindowServer and BST.
My work-around at the moment is to restart BST every 10 hours. Let me know if you find something better.

"When betterSnapTool is running – it hijacks the back button and does a screen resize to half screen and snaps to the left side. (Forward does the same and snaps to the right). I can't find any configuration that will fix this."
Any thoughts?

I am having the same problem as #213 and #197
I am on an iMac 11,1 late 2009 running Yosemite. WindowServer runs at 100% and while my trackpad moves correctly, clicking and scrolling are massively delayed. Quitting BST and restart cure the problem for a while but the next morning or after work it is a problem again.

This app is great, but with Yosemite, there is obviously a big issue. As Dennis said, it makes WindowServer process runs 100% and freeze completely the system. I was trying to understand where this problem came from for two months(!) and found out that BetterSnapTool was the source of this problem.
As I bought this software, I hope it will be fixed soon!

Is there a version for Windows 7? I originally downloaded Better Snap Tool to replicate the aero snap feature when I switched to a Mac. Now, I like the tool so much that I wish I had it on my computer at work. I think it's better than aero snap itself.

Is there a company license for BetterSnapTool? A way to have a key for multiple seats? The main goal of it is to pay only once for multiple seats and to have a way to recover a license from an employee who leaves the company.
221. Tom Says:
March 27th, 2015 at 1:21 pm
Why do you offer a trial version to download that doesn't work? It seems this is a waste of time for me and a waste of bandwidth for you.

We post up karaoke versions of songs on to a video streaming service and allow people to sing and record along to them.
Pre-Teen and Teenagers
Needs to be simple and easy to use for a younger crowd. Needs to be fun and up to date looking to keep them coming back. Needs to encourage recording the songs.
The app will be released on iPad and iPhone. Should operate off one main screen on the iPad and as little as possible on the iPhone using a tab based system. The main screen will include a list of available songs to sing, the streaming video to watch while singing, and a recording area. The app will also store performances and this should be accessible somewhere. An additional menu for cloud backup would be nice also.
iPad / iPhone friendly.
I really like the clean/slick styles today. Minimal but still current. Definitely stay away from any cheesy graphics and looks from the past (bevels and other 1990's type styles).
Open for suggestions however we currently use a lighter blue color similar to what crowd spring is using on this form and a lighter complimentary green color.
Trying to stay away from dark backgrounds.
