In the end, I now think our best hope currently is for a fourth contender to come along with something so strong it destroys expectations of how good a UI can be all over again, the way Apple used to do it, and sells well enough that it forces Apple, Microsoft and Google to sit up and pay attention.

If you purchase a car do you expect the windshield wipers to be disabled if the radio is playing (well, maybe if it's a classic British model ? )? It's the kind of "just barely good enough is fine with us" mentality that pisses off long-term Mac users. It is still there (as of Mojave I haven't looked in Catalina (skipping due to it being so buggy) or Big Sur) yet, but unfortunately selecting it breaks other functionality you can't go full-screen without blacking out all other screens, so it's not really a usable function if you use any apps where full-screen is actually beneficial (such as any VM where you might want to dedicate an entire screen to an alternate OS).īut this example does at least somewhat help to illustrate the point of the OP: Why is this considered acceptable? It shouldn't be. Opening window outside of existing physical display has been the most frustrating experience I had. And note, if any programmer reads this - PLEASE, make sure this thing can be disabled. Press Command () + Option + Escape to open the menu and navigate through it with the arrow keys until you reach Finder. This is ideal if the frozen Finder caused your cursor to get stuck.
DISPLAY MAID OSX ALTERNATIVE WINDOWS
So while I understand that under your situation this would be preferred feature, I suspect there are few of us who would find this feature highly undesirable.Ĭonsidering number of options how applications can render one or many windows on various Spaces, this really needs to be implemented by application - if it really needs to be implemented at all. Click on it and wait for Finder to start again. Nightmare.Īnd for some applications which have this feature (on macOS) I really wish they implemented some way of disabling this. I have some applications which fail miserably with Spaces due to multiple windows. Considering that my mac number of displays and their resolution changes all the time I really cannot imagine how macOS could handle the window restoration in sensible way. Stay alternatives are mainly Window Managers but may also be Application Launchers. Other great apps like Stay are Divvy, altdrag, Shiftit and Moom. The best alternative is Rectangle, which is free. And, unluckily, not always this behavior can be disabled. There are more than 25 alternatives to Stay for Mac, Windows, Linux, KDE and MacPaw Setapp. Behavior of some W10 and some macOS applications which implement this feature make me scream at the computer and cry. Preferred window positions behavior is very user specific.
