# Halves, quarters and your own sizes

Snap the front window from the keyboard, from the menu bar or by dragging it to an edge, and draw any size you like on a grid.

- **Magnet's shortcuts:** ⌃⌥ with the arrows, U, I, J, K, Return and C, the keys Magnet uses. Change any of them.
- **Drag to an edge:** Drag a window to a screen edge or corner and a preview shows where it will land.
- **Draw your own:** Pick cells on a grid, give the size a shortcut, and it joins the menu bar.
