Introduction
Gridy adds an invisible grid to Windows, so that any window you move
or resize is snapped to it.
Snapping is enabled with mouse drag or keyboard arrow keys.
Gridy also lets you store and restore a window's size and position in up to 9
slots. This is useful for quickly arranging your windows in a convenient way.
In addition, you can apply these changes to any window or dialog:
- Make window semi-transparent
- Hide the window's Alt-Tab icon
- Set window to be Always on Top
- Resize to a predefined size of your choice
- Minimize all windows but the active one
Getting Started
After installing Gridy, right click its icon in the system tray to access
some configuration options.
You may also double click the system tray to see the Help screen with all of
the available actions.
For example, while a restored window (not maximized) is in focus, press and
hold the Win key and press the arrow keys to move the window in fixed
intervals.
The same snapping effect can also be achieved by simply moving or resizing
the window.
Technical Notes
Gridy is built as a single executable + a configuration file.
The configuration file is a simple INI file that can be edited either
manually or by using the system tray menu.
By itself, Gridy does not write anything to the registry and is completely
portable.
If you are using the installer to install Gridy on your system, it will
simply copy its files to your chosen directory, add a start menu item and
register itself in the Add/Remove Programs registry.
If you prefer using it without installing, simply extract the executable
using WinRar (or compatible) software.
Gridy is provided free of charge, however if you are feeling generous, your donation will be highly appreciated.
