WindowSpace v2.0 Beta - Snapping like in Windows 7

WindowSpace provides more freedom and comfort in manipulating windows and organizing the desktop for convenient work. The new major version of WindowSpace introduces more than 25 new features and core improvements. As the previous versions (v1.x), WindowSpace v2.0 Beta works under Windows 2000/XP/Vista, 32-bit and 64-bit.

Here is the list of the most noticeable improvements:

Snap-To-Side (similar to the new Aero Snap feature in Windows 7)


Resizing to the edge:


Unsnapping window from the edge, restores its original size. As in the previous version of WindowSpace, you can also right-click the Maximize button to do this.

Roll Up / Unroll windows


20+ hotkeys to manage windows


Snap windows to grid lines



New in WindowSpace v2.0 Beta 2

Aero Snap in Windows 7 is very convenient for the owners of widescreen monitors. I'm trying to improve the original idea and make it more usable for the owners of really big monitors.

Snap-To-Corners (currently it is called "Move window to one fourth of the screen when touching the edge corners", Settings -> Moving & Resizing page)


As for "Snap-To-Side" and "Maximize Vertically", unsnapping window from the edge restores its original size.



WindowSpace is a shareware project (lifetime license costs $24.90). However, I'm currently giving a free evaluation version without any functional limitations. I invite everyone to test WindowSpace v2.0 Beta on as wide variety of system configurations as possible.

WindowSpace v2.0 Beta has a tested compatibility with the following OS:
  • Windows 2000 SP4 Professional
  • Windows XP (32-bit and 64-bit)
  • Windows Vista (32-bit and 64-bit)
