Penc Versions Save

I'm thrilled to release Penc 1.0, the biggest update since its launch. There are some fundamental changes as well as lots of improvements that I hope you like. Some of the key highlights as follows:

New Activation UX & UI

When Penc is activated, it displays a fullscreen overlay that indicates all of the windows visible on your current screen. Now you can move & resize multiple windows in a single activation just by moving your cursor on the window you want.

Action Customization

You can now customize resize dimensions of actions according to your screen. It supports multiple screens too. If you have a second widescreen monitor, you can set to resize a window's width as 1/3 of your screen when swiped left, just for that screen.

Simultaneously Resize Adjacent Windows

When you resize a window from its edges & corners, Penc now resizes all the snapped and adjacent windows.

Right-Click to Minimize & Double-Click to Fullscreen

2 new actions added to Penc:

• Tap with two fingers (right-click) to minimize a window
• Double-tap (double-click) to make a window fullscreen

Keyboard & Mouse Support

When Penc is activated and a window is selected, with your keyboard:

• Press arrow keys to snap the window into halves/quarters
• Press enter key to toggle fullscreen

With your mouse:

• Drag the window from its body and throw it to the direction you want to snap
• Mouse wheel to resize the window
• Double-click to toggle fullscreen
• Right-click to minimize

Other improvements and fixes
