Perfect Grid

This is a windowing grid for the window snapping program GridMove for Microsoft Windows. I used the grid making tutorial by Tyinsar to make the grid.

Installation

Copy the file Perfect.grid to the Grids folder in your GridMove installation directory, usually found at

C:\Program Files (x86)\GridMove\Grids

This gridding behavior was chosen to mimic the window snapping/resizing functionality found in modern Linux desktops such as KDE and Gnome, with the addition of a minimize area.

Support for multiple monitors

Up to two monitors are currently supported by Perfect Grid; support for more may be added later if there's interest in such.
