TwoUp... Quickly position a window to fill exactly half the screen (splitscreen) via menu item or shortcuts (hotkeys). Similar to "tiled windows" functionality available on other operating systems.
What's New
Version 1.0.2: Fixed a timeout error reported when checking Universal Access during system startup.
Thx for the nifty app. But I found it not supporting second monitor. If I use it on a window located on the second display, it automatically bring the window to the primary display.
I was first skeptical of this software because I didn't see an issue with just resizing windows by hand, but the more I use this program, the more I like it. My only issue is the menu icon. I try to keep my menu as clean as possible, and I am wondering if you could write the program to disable the menu icon and just have the key commands? If that is not possible, could you make a better icon? Even two rectangles might look nice.
Thank you
I have a hidden preference to disable the menu bar icon, see the topic here:

Then press Enter (return) to execute the command. You won't get any feedback to know if this worked correctly. Then you need to quit and restart TwoUp. If you still see the menu bar icon, you know the Terminal command didn't work. Let me know how it goes (or contact me directly via my support page)
Works great on my G5 running 10.5, but not at all on my Intel iMac at work running 10.4. Seems like a simple enough application…why does it need Leopard?
Great software that's very stableand works perfectly for having a window vertical or horizontal half-way.
They make another program named SizeUp, which I have suggested up top, made by the same dev's but is shareware... it costs $1.35 or something like that lol, they just ask that you make some sort of donation if you like and use the app. They ask that you pay whatever you like based on how useful the software is to you.
This app allows you to put a window in the top right corner or left corner or bottom right/left... you can easily have 4 different or same application windows easily placed on your screen for easy comparison or drag-n-drop. Great app. Definitely check out: SIZEUP , click link above.
I've been looking for something like this for a long time, great work. I only have 2 suggestions... 1) when accessing the preferences please make it go above all windows. 2) It would be nice to have a preference to not resize vertically. Other than that it works perfectly. Any chance you can make this program arrange all windows on your screen proportionally? (example. 4 windows open, arrange to fit all four windows to your screen size)
This is smart. This should be built into Apple OS for sure. So far, no problems with it's operation and will keep using it until so. It's the fastest way to move a window aside but still keep it viewable, neat, and tidy. Try it - you'll like it.
