DESCRIPTION

WindowResizer is a simple tool that gives you a way to use hotkeys to quickly save and restore different window positions and sizes.

 

Hotkeys

Change hotkeys in setting window.

save window position
default hotkey: Ctrl+Alt+S

save all opened window positions

restore window position
default hotkey: Ctrl+Alt+R

restore all opened window positions

 

Usage

how to add an config entry
Focus on the window (eg. Chrome), then press the save window hotkey (Ctrl+Alt+S by default), an entry will be added to the configuration file.

How does the window matching work?
The process name is matched first. The title is not required, by default use a wildcard * to match all the titles for a process name. And if you specify the title, it will be matched first.

Option: Resize by title
Unchecked: Resize based on process
Checked: Resize based on Process and title

Auto resize: restore window position automatically
check the checkbox on Auto column.

Option: Auto resize delay
This option is used with the Auto Resize feature. When Auto Resize based on process titles, some titles are not immediately determined, such as Chrome web pages. If this option is checked, you can set a delay (in millisecond) for the Chrome process, so when a new Chrome window is created, there will be a delay before resize takes effect.
