Finder Window Manager Description

Finder Window MANAGER (FWM) is an application for managing all of your Mac OS X Finder window needs. This application allows you to create Window Sets to remember the size, placement, and just about all the view options of your open windows (there are a few minor settings such as label placement below or on the side of icon views that are not open to modification by third-party applications). Once a Window Set has been created, you can MOVE, close, or otherwise modify your windows and easily restore the captured Window Set properties, opening all the windows and recreating their views, bounds, and positions—and you can have an unlimited number of Window Sets. When you have many projects in various windows, this application quickly becomes indispensable. While FWM provides an easy-to-use interface for managing Window Sets, this feature is just the tip of the iceberg of this application’s capabilities. Usage The main feature of Finder Window Manager is the ability to save and restore your window placement and view options via Window Sets. To create a set, simply open any windows you would like included in your Set, position them where you’d like (for exact placement, try the Precisely Position utility) and set their views. Once you have your windows arranged to your liking, create a new Window Set by selecting “Create New Window Set” from the FWM menu (a menu in you menubar designated by an icon of two stacked windows) and you will instantly be able to recreate your current window views. You may have an unlimited number of Sets. When saving your Set, the name you choose will determine its order in your Set list (by alphanumerical order) so if you would like it to sort at the top, add a prefix such as “01-". If you choose a name of an existing Set for the name of your new Set, you will be asked if you want to overwrite the old Set or come up with a new, unique name.
