Dividing the monitor into "working" areas?

Question

Windows

I decided to buy a large monitor (27"), but with such a large screen, you understand that it will simply not be convenient to expand windows to the entire desktop, you won’t be able to read text spaced 60 centimeters apart. The question arose of how to divide the monitor into virtual workspaces. Previously something similar was in the nVidia driver package for WinXP (included in the nView package), but for some reason they cut it out with the transition to Vista.In nView, you could split the monitor into parts and maximize (maximize) the window only in its part .double click on the window did not maximize the window to the entire monitor, but maximized it only in its own area). hear real use cases by you.Thank you.

Answer 1

in win7, you can just drag the window to the right or left - it will take up half the screen. Or from the keyboard - win + left and win + right. ntwind's windowspace utility does the same, maybe even better in some places.

Answer 2

Do not expand the window to full screen. It's obvious.

Answer 3

tiling window managers, from myself I can advise xmonad.

Answer 4

Take a look at Actual Window Manager , it might support what you need.
At nview-fix-got-working-windows-7 is nView which works in Seven. Well, if you want to run nView with your own hands, then after downloading the latest firewood from the nvidia website, pull it out with winrar and unpack the nview.cab
file from there . By installing nviewsetup.exe as usual, you will see the nView Desktop Manager in the Control Panel.

Answer 5

Enlarge the font :)

Answer 6

if we were talking about Linux \ bsd, I would advise xmonad :)

Here is another little program

Answer 8

Previously, I constantly used the DeskPin program www.techyard.net/deskpins-pin-any-window-as-alway-on-top/ allows you to "pin" a window on top of other windows. On a wide screen, it seemed very comfortable.

Answer 9

I like WinSplit Revolution - it's free, it's quite flexible, you can position windows with both keys and mouse.
