MouseDef

MouseDef

⚠️ This application is in its alpha stage, things may change drastically going forward. ⚠️

MouseDef is a Mac desktop utility that lets you move and resize windows by holding down modifier keys.

How it works

MouseDef uses the accessibility features in macOS in order to gain information about the cursor's current position and to resolve which window is underneath the cursor in addition to setting the new position and/or size as the mouse cursor moves.

Default keyboard shortcuts are:

  • fn + ⌘ : Move window
  • ⇧ + ⌘ : Resize window

Features

  • Customizable keyboard shortcut keys
  • Move windows when modifier keys are active
  • Resize windows when modifier keys are active
  • Quadrant resizing

Build and run the project

The project setup uses XcodeGen to generate an Xcode project. For more detailed instructions about Xcode, please visit their README.md

open -a "Xcode" MouseDef.xcodeproj
