Moving / Resizing / Mouse-Hovering

Available in: Actual Window Manager, Actual Multiple Monitors, Actual Title Buttons, Actual Transparent Window, Actual Window Menu, Actual Window Rollup.

Here's a description of the various "toggled" (i.e., "on/off") window states Actual Tools programs offer to provide you with extended control of the windows on your system. Sometimes it is useful to temporarily change some window properties depending on these states.

The Move state is turned on as soon as you start dragging a window around with the mouse pointer by its title bar: i.e., left-click anywhere on the window's title bar and (keeping the mouse button depressed) drag the window to its new location on the desktop. Another way to move a window is to activate its system menu and select there the Move command, then use the arrow keys to drag the window to its new location - finally pressing <Enter> to keep the selected position or <Esc> to cancel the changes. When you release the left mouse button or press one of the above-mentioned keys, Move state is turned off. Actual Tools programs can automatically execute the following actions while moving a window:

The Resize state is turned on as soon as you start resizing a window with the mouse pointer opposing arrows cursor; i.e., hover the pointer over the border of the window until it turns into opposing arrows, then left-click on the window's border and (keeping the mouse button depressed) drag the border to its new size. Another way to resize a window is to activate its system menu and select there the Size command, then use the arrow keys to resize the window - finally pressing <Enter> to keep the selected size or <Esc> to cancel the changes. When you release the left mouse button or press one of the above-mentioned keys, Resize state is turned off. Actual Tools programs can automatically execute the following actions while resizing a window:

The Mouse-hovering state is turned on the instant the mouse pointer crosses the boundaries represented by the window's borders into the visible portion of the window. Conversely, the instant the mouse pointer moves out this rectangle, Mouse-hovering state is turned off. Actual Tools programs can automatically execute the following actions while hovering a window by the mouse pointer:

  • Make Transparent - set the specified transparency level. The previous transparency level will be restored when the mouse pointer leaves the bounded region of the window.
  • Unroll - when the mouse pointer goes outside the window it is rolled up back. Note that you can also specify a delay period before automatic rolling up/unrolling takes place.
