Global Navigation: Moving and Sizing Windows

Cascade/Horizontal/Vertical    Windows

Go    Taskbar/Title bar
    [This puts the arrow on the Title bar at the top of the current window, or the Taskbar at the bottom of the screen.]

Size Window    
[This puts the cursor at the extreme top right of the Window you are on. You can use the "Drag    Left/Right/Down/Up" commands found in the Global Navigation: Moving the Mouse section to drag the Window border to change its size, or use the following commands to size the Window directly.]

Window    Up/Down/Left/Right    1-100
    
[This and and the next 9 sets of macros allow you to move the current window by pixel. Whole numbers are 10-pixel increments. Decimals are one-pixel increments. For example, saying "Go Up 10" moves the window up 100 pixels, while "Window Up 5 Point 4" moves the window up 54 pixels. Note: There's a similar set of mouse commands in the Global Navigation: Moving the Mouse section.]
Window    Up/Down/Left/Right    1-100    Dot (Point)    1-9
Window    Up/Down/Left/Right    Dot (Point)    1-9    
Window    <Top Bottom...>    Right/Left    1-100    
[This and the following five commands allow you to move the Window at a diagonal; they also give you alternate ways to say "Up" and "Down." For example, saying "Window Top Left 10" will move the Window 100 pixels toward the top left-hand corner of the screen. "Window Down Right 4" will drag the mouse 40 pixels toward the bottom right hand corner of the screen. "Window Lower Right 4" will do the same.]
Window    <Top Bottom...>    Right/Left    1-100    Dot (Point)    1-9
Window    <Top Bottom...>    1-100    Right/Left    1-100
Window    <Top Bottom...>    1-100 Dot (Point)    1-9 Right/Left    1-100
Window    <Top Bottom...>    1-100    Right/Left    1-100    Dot (Point)    1-9
Window    <Top Bottom...>    1-100    Dot (Point)    1-9 Right/Left    1-100    Dot (Point)    1-9
