A couple of great windows 7 tips




These few tricks are cool features built into windows 7 and are great for controlling your on screen windows.
reduce all other windows besides the one you want.
Just grab the title bar and drag the window around your desktop, now just shake the window around a little, and soon he will be standing alone on the screen. Try it now!
maximise a window or make it a floating window (restore)
Just as we did before, grab the window by its title bar and move it up to the top of the screen until your mouse hits the top edge. The window will now be maximised.
Now grab it again and drag it away from the top and you will see the maximised window pull away and turn back into a floating window.
compare 2 windows at once
If you once again grab the window by the title bar and drag it to the right or left edge of the screen (as long as you only have one screen on your computer, otherwise it’s not as effective), it will the fill up only that half of the screen. Grab another window and drag it to the opposite edge and it will take up the other half. This is great for comparing folders, documents, or even copying or moving files from one place to another.
There are heaps of other simple tips like this coming soon.
