DaleWebb Posted July 12, 2023 Share Posted July 12, 2023 Windows 11 has a feature where you can hover over the FULL SCREEN icon at the top-right of a window and a option box opens to show you different available screen layouts that you can choose from. If I didn't explain it well, Google "Snap Layouts." Couldn't figure out how to take a screen movie of a dynamic process. Anyway, this doesn't seem to be implemented in Affinity Designer 2[.1.1]. It would be swell if it could be implemented. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Catshill Posted July 13, 2023 Share Posted July 13, 2023 This feature comes with the Dell widescreen monitor application that is free to download and allows you to divide the screen into different areas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which feature? Snap Layouts? I seem to have it natively on Win 11, without any Dell monitor nor any Dell applications installed.

My Dell is 34” wide so the utility makes it really easy to align multiple windows and applications. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
