Windows 10: Windows snap assist not filling whole space, wallpaper seeping on the gaps of edges.

Some windows don't fill the whole desktop when using snap assist. I can see the wallpaper of my computer on the edges of the window. I can resize the left and right side of the window manually but the top of the window just snaps back with that gap. Is there a way to fill that space or just disable the snap assist for a particular app?

Snap Assist

Hi Cory,

The Snap Assist allows you to juggle apps, arrange open windows, resize windows by simply dragging and dropping them to the edges of the screen. If you don't want to get a quarter screen snap, you can change the settings of Snap Assist by follow the steps below:

• Open the Settings app
• Click System.
• Click Multitasking.
• You can turn off some of the option of Snap Assist on this window.

If you want to disable Snap Assist, you can turn off Arrange windows automatically by dragging them to the sides or corners of the screen.

Should you have further queries, feel free to post it.

 

Snapping causes small borders around windows

@Peer_Sam

> Method 1: Change Multitasking settings.

This setting is already on.

> Method 2: Change registry values for border width.

This setting was set to -60, is now set to 0.

I don't really see a difference yet. At the very right edge of my screen I now see a 1 pixel gap where my wallpaper comes through, as well as between the taskbar (bottom) and only the right-snapped window. The left-snapped window takes all available space
to the last pixel, atm.

However, it's nearly impossible to reproduce on-demand. It's a tossup basically. Sometimes it'll be pixel precize, other times it leaves gaps of 1-4 pixels anywhere around the two windows.

Any other suggestions?

 

Snap Assist to top and bottom in portrait mode

I work in Portrait on my desktop and have found an almost-but-not-quite solution building on Eeshwar's suggestion.

1) Snap a window to one of the corners. For this purpose we'll say you have your notes app and Snap it to bottom-left or bottom-right.

2) Size the snapped window horizontally to fill the screen

3) Snap "top" window to either top corner - the window will match the size of your previously-snapped bottom window and fill the rest of the screen.

This solution has drawbacks:

1) Extra step - you must resize the initial window after snapping

2) No official keyboard shortcuts
