# Displays, windows and all your Macs

Monitors that stay where you put them, windows that find their way home, and Macs that work as one desk.

## Displays and Universal Control

- [Display arrangement](https://universaldisplaymagnet.app/features/display-arrangement): Drag your Mac's displays in a visual editor and they snap flush, edges and centers lined up. The arrangement comes back on every reconnect and wake.
- [Universal Control](https://universaldisplaymagnet.app/features/universal-control): See every Mac's displays where Universal Control has them, and drag another Mac's screens until they snap flush across your Macs.

## Windows and workspaces

- [Window snapping](https://universaldisplaymagnet.app/features/window-snapping): Snap the front window to halves, quarters, the next display, maximize or center from the keyboard, the menu bar or by dragging it to an edge.
- [Workspaces](https://universaldisplaymagnet.app/features/workspaces): Save every app's windows with their monitor, Desktop and full-screen Space, and restore them all with a click or a shortcut.

## Scrolling Windows

An optional way to lay out windows, off until you turn it on. While it's on, window snapping and automatic window snapshots pause.

- [Scrolling Windows](https://universaldisplaymagnet.app/features/scrolling-windows): Every window becomes a column on a strip that runs past the edges of the screen, and new windows slide in without squeezing the rest.
- [Column widths](https://universaldisplaymagnet.app/features/column-widths): Cycle a column through preset widths, nudge it wider or narrower, make it full width or center it on screen.
- [Stacks](https://universaldisplaymagnet.app/features/stacks): Stack a window into the column on its left or right, reorder it, change its height, and pop it back out on either side.
- [Tabbed columns](https://universaldisplaymagnet.app/features/tabbed-columns): Turn a stack into tabs when each window deserves the full height. A clickable tab bar shows what's in the column.
- [Grid tiling](https://universaldisplaymagnet.app/features/grid-tiling): Switch a display from the strip to a grid, and every window you open divides the screen into smaller pieces.
- [Strip overview](https://universaldisplaymagnet.app/features/strip-overview): Hold ⌃⌥ to see the whole strip. Click a column to jump there, or drag it to reorder the strip.
- [Scrolling on several displays](https://universaldisplaymagnet.app/features/multiple-displays): In Scrolling Windows, each display keeps its own strip or grid. Send windows to the next display, and switch Scrolling Windows off for any display.
- [Trackpad swipe](https://universaldisplaymagnet.app/features/trackpad-swipe): Swipe with three or four fingers and the strip moves with your fingers, then settles on the nearest column.
- [Focus, gaps and the Dock](https://universaldisplaymagnet.app/features/focus-and-gaps): A border marks the focused window, inactive windows can dim, gaps go from none to generous, and windows make room for the Dock.
- [Floating windows and app rules](https://universaldisplaymagnet.app/features/floating-windows): Take a window out of the strip so it floats above the columns, and set rules that float an app's windows or pick their first column.
