Snap allows you to automatically resize two windows or programs to fit your entire screen and eliminate any overlap.
To use the Snap feature, left click on the title bar of an open window and drag it to either side of the screen. When an outline of the expanded window appears, release the mouse button. This will automatically resize the window or program to fit that half of the screen.
Follow the same steps with another window and drag to the opposite side of the screen. This will automatically resize the window or program to fit that half of the screen.
When you are finished, click and drag the program or window away from the side and it will return to its previous size and position.
