Windows 11 New Features
About Lesson

If you use Windows intensively, you have no doubt found yourself in a situation where you have too many open frames on your screen and this makes it difficult for you to work. In this case, I have three different apps open at the same time and their frames are placed on top of each other. Until now, you could solve this problem in several ways, and one of them involves manually changing the size and position of the frame. Another solution is to simultaneously press the Alt and Tab keys, whereby certain parts of the screen are displayed alternately. If all this is not enough for you, I suggest you to try the new function of Windows 11 called Snap Layouts, because it serves exactly to solve such problems. To show you how all this works in practice, I will place the cursor above the button that serves to maximize one of the existing frames (Maximize). In doing so, I will not press the left mouse button, but just keep the cursor in this position, and Windows will automatically offer me several different schemes for arranging active applications. So, in this way, you can choose their future schedule with one move, which is much easier than all the methods known so far. You must keep in mind that the layout offered also depends on the size of your screen, ie. resolution you are currently using. Since there are three frames on my screen, I’ll go with the option in the lower left corner because that’s the layout that suits me best. At this moment, the frame containing Notepad is active, so I placed the cursor above its Maximize button. This means that I am expected to determine his new position ie. to choose the section it will be placed in and I like it to be this big box on the left. It is for this reason that I will click on the corresponding surface and create a new layout in one go. Windows now expects me to fill in the other two sections, so it shows me the remaining applications. I would like the Calculator to appear in the upper right frame, so I will click on it and thus determine the position of this application. In the end, all I have to do is place the third application in the box at the bottom right, so I’ll simply click on it and complete the process. In this way, I effectively used the entire surface of the screen, and that’s exactly what the Snap Layout function is for.
