That box being checked means I have spaces A1 A2. Macos has a checkbox "Displays have separate Spaces", and neither checked nor unchecked gives the behavior I want. I just wish "spaces" worked like xmonad workspaces, specifically that in xmonad there are some number of workspaces (9 by default) and each display is a view into _any_ of those. The easier option is to finally fix my linux laptop, which died around the time covid started, and thus wasn't a critical path fix)
TILEWINDOWS LITE MAC SOFTWARE
I'm sure there's some software that might fix this, but back in the 90s when I was using Windows I remember that sort of software was just terrible. Of course there's no focus-follows-mouse either, it's all very user-unfriendly, at least by default. (Another reason, I've got about 15 opwn terminals, but I can't just raise 1 terminal window above my browser, I have to raise them all. It's poor behaviour and one reason I prefer my linux desktop to my anicent macbook. Press Cmd, Press Tab, release Tab, Press Tab, Release Tab, you can move from application 1 to application 3, although it doesn't switch immediately, just shows you a menu while you hold down Cmdĭo this with windows and the actual window changes as you move, not a menu That if you type something after swapping window and the behaviour changes is even worse! You swap from application 2 to application 1 Press Cmd, Press tab, Release tab, Release tab You've swapped from application 1 to application 2
Press Cmd, Press tab, Release tab, Release Cmd Press Cmd, Press `, Release `, Release Cmd makes window management so much more pleasant!
TILEWINDOWS LITE MAC MAC
Rectangle is one of the first installs on any Mac I put my hands on. There are some clear UX philosophies that are very different, and the initial transition can only be pretty jarring, but I'm curious what the author would say about it after a month or two.Īlso, fwiw, I think most power Mac users also marshal the use of some other programs to help along with some of that (or at least to tailor it more closely to what they want the experience to be). However, after a while, it sort of "made sense" to me, if that makes any sense at all. I think it is not uncommon for Windows folk to find the windowing experience on macs rather painful, at least at first. Having gone through the same thing myself several years ago, the UI aspect of it is something that I'd be curious to see how it develops for the author. Despite the warning, I didn't find it nearly as "ranty" as the author cautioned, and instead seemed like a fairly comprehensive and fair take on his experience.
