Windows 7 Snap
The new Windows feature Snap is a quick new way to resize open windows, simply by dragging them to the edges of your screen.

You can also utiliy the “Windows Key” and the arrow keys. This is my favorite way for using the “Snap” feature.
- “Windows Key” and Up Arrow – Snaps the open window to Full Screen
- “Windows Key” and Down Arrow – Snaps the open window to Retore or Minimize
- “Windows Key” and Left Arrow – Snaps the open window to the Left Half of the Screen
- “Windows Key” and Right Arrow – Snaps the open window to the Right Half of the Screen
