New in MaxTo 2.1.3 (Nov 24, 2020)

New in MaxTo 2.1.1 (Nov 13, 2020)

  • Bug Fix crash when cancelling region change on multiple monitors. See issue #635.
  • Bug Fix unknown server error when validating license keys. This was caused by missing padding characters in the license keys, because when double-clicking a long string and copying it, Windows would not highlight the trailing padding characters.

  • Feature Completely new design.
  • Feature Support for virtual desktops.

New in MaxTo 2.0.0 Beta 1 (Nov 2, 2018)

  • What's new:
  • Brand new bugs:
  • Let's just be honest here: this is a beta release. That's right, we've fixed a lot of bugs, and probably introduced a lot of new ones. Don't expect anything to work well in the early alpha releases.
  • We've basically rewritten everything from scratch, so expect some crashes.
  • Brand new user interface
  • We've separated the user interface from the underlying functionality in MaxTo, and re-implemented it completely.
  • This means that everything should feel a lot nicer and fresher; and it should look a lot better on Windows 10!
  • It also means that we now have full, complete mixed-DPI support! Finally!
  • Recipes
  • Recipes are a powerful new feature of MaxTo, that replaces the previous keyboard shortcut functionality. A recipe is a set of commands assigned to a keyboard shortcut; which means that you can run a lot of commands using one keystroke.
  • Commands that are ready now include:
  • Move a window into a region
  • Focus on a window in a given direction
  • Center a window on a given monitor
  • Load preset on a specific monitor
  • Highlight regions on a given monitor (or on all monitors)
  • Launch a program
  • Maximize to screen
  • You can mix and match these commands as you see fit; and we have nice editors for their arguments in the user interface.
  • Open source documentation:
  • We've started writing proper documentation. Obviously it is not finished as of now, but we have published what we have.
  • Also, if you have suggestions, you can edit the documentation directly. We will include any approved changes on the website as it is updated.
  • Virtual desktop support:
  • You can now have different regions on each virtual desktop. Or you can have the same regions on all virtual desktops. It's a setting.
  • Automatically updated compatibility shims:
  • We can now update the compatibility shims (that ensure MaxTo is compatible with other programs) without releasing a new version of MaxTo. You can selectively disable the shims on your machine if desired.
  • Monitors are identified by serial number by default:
  • This is a bigger deal than it seems. Previously MaxTo used the monitor number as reported by Windows. That meant that if you had two monitors, MaxTo would only know of them as monitor 1 and monitor 2. If you detached monitor 1, its regions would be applied to the second monitor, as that monitor got renamed "monitor 2", and the settings for the second monitor would be forgotten.
  • Now MaxTo knows the serial number of each monitor, and will remember the settings for that monitor forever.
  • New settings system:
  • We've introduced a new, JSON-based, settings system that automatically reloads any changes to the configuration file immediately. You can find MaxTo's settings in %AppData%MaxTo% (by default, you can change this to e.g. store them in your Dropbox).
  • New installer:
  • Our new installer is based on Squirrel, which means we get automatic updates and delta packages "for free". So that's good.

New in MaxTo 2017.7.0.0 (Jul 4, 2017)

  • Bug fix release that fixes the most annoying bugs in MaxTo. The largest change here is updating to .NET Framework 4.7, which allows us to support running monitors at different DPI, less known as "per-monitor DPI awareness". Besides this improvement, we have fixed quite a few outstanding bugs.

  • Bundle Visual C++ Runtime with installer. This increases the installer size (almost doubles it), but is a lot quicker during installation, installs less things on your machine, and it is the right thing (TM) to do
