New

  • See where a dragged window will land. While you drag a window, an outline in the focus ring color shows the column it would join, tab bar included. Over another monitor, a bar shows where it would go between that monitor's columns. No highlight means it will snap back.
  • A fuller tray menu. It lists the workspaces in use with how many windows each holds; pick one to go there. Under Shortcuts is every action with its shortcut, to run it from the menu. When "Take over Windows shortcuts" is off, the menu also lists the shortcuts Windows keeps.
  • Every shortcut on one page. Win+Ctrl+/ (the key with ? on a US keyboard) shows them all; press it again or Esc to close. It's also in the tray menu, under Shortcuts.
  • Report a Problem, in the tray menu and in Settings › General. Glide puts its log and settings in a zip, with window titles taken out, and opens a new issue on GitHub for you to describe what happened and attach the zip. Nothing is sent by itself.
  • Glide habla español. When Windows is in Spanish, Glide is too, installer included. What's New stays in English.

Fixes

  • Full screen stays full screen. A video, a game or F11 in a browser is no longer pulled back into its column. Glide leaves it alone, hides the focus ring, dimming and tab bar over it, and lets the horizontal wheel and touchpad swipes reach it.
  • Switching to another of Windows' virtual desktops and back keeps your columns in the same order.
  • Closing a window no longer pulls focus away from Glide's own windows, such as What's New or Settings.

Install

Download the installer for your PC: x64 for most PCs, ARM64 for Snapdragon and other Arm PCs. It installs just for you, without administrator rights, and Glide keeps itself up to date from then on. Checksums are in SHA256SUMS.txt.

This release isn't code-signed yet, so SmartScreen may warn the first time: choose More info › Run anyway.
