◊ This control panel is distributed as Shareware: if you like it or use it please honor the shareware system by sending $5 to the author at the address above. Since collecting international cheques is very expensive, please send cash only. If you MUST send a cheque, keep in mind that the banks will gobble up more than half of it.
◊ NOTE: Getting some (usually very few) bucks is what you write shareware for, but getting a note, a postcard or anything else is a lot better than getting nothing. I'd like to know how far this program has gone, so remember that you can do something nice even if you don't have a couple of $$$ to spare.
• WHAT IS IT?
◊ DragAnyWindow is a control panel that allows you to easily move any kind of window, including dialogs, alerts, standard "Open" and "Save" dialogs, game windows and other non-movable windows.
◊ This control panel is very useful for old applications designed for the 9" screen (which often use fixed windows); it is also very handy for moving modal dialogs or any windows behind them.
◊ DragAnyWindow only takes about 2K of system memory and 5K of disk space.
• HOW TO DRAG ANY WINDOW
◊ Drop DragAnyWindow in your Control Panels folder (System 7) or System folder (System 6) and restart your Macintosh.
◊ When you want to move a window, click on any part of the window while holding down both (and only) the COMMAND and CONTROL keys (sorry- doesn't work if you don't have a Control key).
• KNOWN PROBLEMS
◊ Because of the way the Finder handles its mouse clicks, dragging Finder windows with DragAnyWindow also does a desktop drag (the Finder believes you clicked on the desktop and dragged because it doesn't receive any "mouse-clicked-in-window" message). This is just a little annoying, but since Finder windows don't need DragAnyWindow to be moved you won't even notice it.
• VERSION HISTORY
◊ 1.01 - Added support for system 7 default items calls.
◊ 1.0 - First public release on 3"1/2 Mac Disk Magazine.
• HAVE FUN! And don't forget to $$$ SEND YOUR CONTRIBUTION $$$ so that more cool utilities will see the light in the near future, at the low-low-low costs of shareware.
