  1. Windows have small gaps between edges of screen and each other when using edge snapping


    I recently updated Windows 10 to the most recent version. After doing so I have noticed that when using edge snapping to displays two windows sides by side that the windows for some applications have a small gap between them and the edges of the screen and each other. This is most notable with Google Chrome and the Setting app. Windows have small gaps between edges of screen and each other when using edge snapping 74ddf86e-9688-4a4b-959b-c65e3a87aa6c?upload=true.png

    I am running Windows 10 on a Mac using Bootcamp and have made sure that my display drivers are up to date.

    Shared edge with windows snapping


    Thank you!

    It does seem to work with other apps as you mentioned. But I 've encountered some oddities/bugs?
    1. Firefox snapping doesn,t seem to work properly when my taskbar is docked to the right side of my screen opposed to the default bottom. The bottom of the window doesn't touch the bottom of the screen when snapping resulting in not showing the shared edge. Wich brings me to my next problem Windows have small gaps between edges of screen and each other when using edge snapping :)
    2. When the you snap to a corner so that it the window takes for example 1/4 of a screen, the snapped window will not show the shared edge with windows that are snapped to top and bottom

    Snap assist feature is the ability to drag windows to the left or right edges of the screen to resize them to half the screen. To enable this feature, follow the steps below:

    • Open Settings.
    • Select System.
    • Click Multitasking in the left pane.
    • Turn ON the When I snap a window, show what I can snap next to it option.

    It only works when you snapp application to side (1/2 of desktop).
    It works wit my Firefox, Office and explorer. Didn't try with others. Can be really useful.
