I know it's been a few years - if you've fixed it, please let me know how to do it? I'm still holding down shift and moving a maximized window just a bit off the split so that I can re-size it manually.

Typically, it's a spreadsheet that's maximimized in the split, but is one or two columns wider than the split, so I just want to make it a bit wider (but only for that one spreadsheet). I hope that's clear enough.

Thanks for a fantastic product - might be the most useful one I own... ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/resize-windows-that-is-maximized-to-a-split/?ID=660416f7-5cd7-42b3-97fc-025ac48cd13d#8 Wed, 17 Jan 2024 16:27:08 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/resize-windows-that-is-maximized-to-a-split/?ID=660416f7-5cd7-42b3-97fc-025ac48cd13d#8 DisplayFusion No promises but we're hoping to work on it for one of the DisplayFusion 11 betas. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/resize-windows-that-is-maximized-to-a-split/?ID=660416f7-5cd7-42b3-97fc-025ac48cd13d#7 Sat, 13 Jan 2024 21:30:09 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/resize-windows-that-is-maximized-to-a-split/?ID=660416f7-5cd7-42b3-97fc-025ac48cd13d#7 DisplayFusion @Keith Lammers - any progress on this? It seems like a fairly simple request.

It drives me crazy every time I want to resize a maximized screen, and it happens often! ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/resize-windows-that-is-maximized-to-a-split/?ID=660416f7-5cd7-42b3-97fc-025ac48cd13d#6 Sat, 26 Sep 2020 13:48:47 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/resize-windows-that-is-maximized-to-a-split/?ID=660416f7-5cd7-42b3-97fc-025ac48cd13d#6 DisplayFusion is this still not possible? ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/resize-windows-that-is-maximized-to-a-split/?ID=660416f7-5cd7-42b3-97fc-025ac48cd13d#5 Sat, 09 Jun 2018 21:11:55 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/resize-windows-that-is-maximized-to-a-split/?ID=660416f7-5cd7-42b3-97fc-025ac48cd13d#5 DisplayFusion I really need this, please! ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/resize-windows-that-is-maximized-to-a-split/?ID=660416f7-5cd7-42b3-97fc-025ac48cd13d#4 Fri, 11 May 2018 14:26:29 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/resize-windows-that-is-maximized-to-a-split/?ID=660416f7-5cd7-42b3-97fc-025ac48cd13d#4 DisplayFusion I've added your vote to the open ticket

I have very large primary monitors, and give them a simple split. I always work with apps/docs maximized in each split, or on secondary/tertiary monitors. I do a lot of responsive web design, so I'd like to be able to grab the edge of the maximized window in a split, and just stretch it to test responsive designs.

Or sometimes I need to give a window a little more room if (for example) a site I'm looking at isn't responsive. Although the primary monitor is big, the splits are only 1280 x 1440—not quite standard browsing widths.

If taskbar buttons can be set to ignore maximized windows, can you do the same for resizing of maximized windows?

Many thanks. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/resize-windows-that-is-maximized-to-a-split/?ID=660416f7-5cd7-42b3-97fc-025ac48cd13d#2 Mon, 04 Dec 2017 17:06:18 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/resize-windows-that-is-maximized-to-a-split/?ID=660416f7-5cd7-42b3-97fc-025ac48cd13d#2 DisplayFusion Interesting idea!

Thanks! ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/resize-windows-that-is-maximized-to-a-split/?ID=660416f7-5cd7-42b3-97fc-025ac48cd13d Sun, 03 Dec 2017 04:27:16 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/resize-windows-that-is-maximized-to-a-split/?ID=660416f7-5cd7-42b3-97fc-025ac48cd13d DisplayFusion It seems that re-size is disabled for a window "maximized" on a split.

There seems to be a nice "bug" on UWP apps that would allow me to still resize after maximize.

Please have an option to have resizable windows regardless of maximized state.

I purchased this software to help me align windows width, and not height.. but vice versa would also be nice.

My ghetto solution right now is to
-"maximize" using a Split as size template
-then use "modifier" key to move window just a little bit off to the side
-I would now be able to resize by placing mouse on the edge of a Window frame
-make my browser higher
-rejoice. ]]>
