1 00:00:00,390 --> 00:00:06,150 With Windows 11, there was this new feature called Snap Layout, and you may have already heard about 2 00:00:06,150 --> 00:00:06,480 it. 3 00:00:06,780 --> 00:00:13,230 So what this allows you to do is just place certain applications on your screen in a sort of a more 4 00:00:13,230 --> 00:00:14,430 controlled manner. 5 00:00:14,880 --> 00:00:20,760 So for instance, with, let's say, Windows 10, maybe you wanted to have one application take up half 6 00:00:20,760 --> 00:00:25,500 the screen on the left and another application to take up the other half of the screen. 7 00:00:25,830 --> 00:00:29,700 Now you were able to do that in Windows 10 and also in Windows seven. 8 00:00:30,090 --> 00:00:32,280 But it was a little bit difficult to use. 9 00:00:32,700 --> 00:00:38,220 But now we have this inbuilt feature like I just mentioned the snap layout feature. 10 00:00:38,790 --> 00:00:44,940 So on my PC right now I have several applications that are open and I want to view all of them at the 11 00:00:44,940 --> 00:00:45,570 same time. 12 00:00:46,080 --> 00:00:50,760 So I think I'm going to take advantage of the snap layout feature now to use this feature. 13 00:00:50,820 --> 00:00:54,210 All you have to do is just to go to one of your applications. 14 00:00:54,210 --> 00:00:55,410 So let's just go for. 15 00:00:56,510 --> 00:01:03,200 This year where I have this video ready to play, and I want to have this at the top left, so all I 16 00:01:03,200 --> 00:01:07,640 have to do is just come to this option here and here we have four options. 17 00:01:08,480 --> 00:01:13,460 So first of all, I'm going to go for this option here and have this video play on the left. 18 00:01:15,080 --> 00:01:20,300 OK, so now that I've clicked on that, Windows has detected that there are these other applications 19 00:01:20,300 --> 00:01:23,930 which are these applications here that are also open. 20 00:01:24,290 --> 00:01:25,400 So it's asking, OK? 21 00:01:25,730 --> 00:01:27,860 What other one do you want on the right? 22 00:01:28,610 --> 00:01:33,650 So I think what I'll go for is the Chrome browser, so I'll click on that. 23 00:01:34,790 --> 00:01:40,010 And I can have this video play on the left and I can surf the web if that's what they still say these 24 00:01:40,010 --> 00:01:40,370 days. 25 00:01:41,000 --> 00:01:46,580 However, if I wanted to have four of these applications open in front of me at the same time, what 26 00:01:46,580 --> 00:01:52,220 I could do is I can just come to this option once again, and I'm going to put this at the top left. 27 00:01:52,970 --> 00:01:56,810 Now you might think to yourself, OK, Warwick, will you just click on the top left wise and not here? 28 00:01:57,230 --> 00:02:02,810 Well, to be honest with you, this is the Windows 11 Insider program version of Windows 11. 29 00:02:02,810 --> 00:02:08,120 So maybe this is just a small bug that Windows 11 has at the moment. 30 00:02:08,630 --> 00:02:13,430 But needless to say, once I click on one of these options, it will show at the top left. 31 00:02:13,910 --> 00:02:19,850 So what I'm going to do is I'm going to click on my file explorer here, and I'm going to put this up 32 00:02:19,850 --> 00:02:25,190 here at the top right and then I'm going to put my photos here at the bottom left. 33 00:02:25,580 --> 00:02:30,620 And as you can see, the videos actually appeared now, and I'm going to put Wikipedia within Google 34 00:02:30,620 --> 00:02:32,780 Chrome here at the bottom right. 35 00:02:33,410 --> 00:02:36,050 So you can see how easy it is to actually use this. 36 00:02:36,620 --> 00:02:39,900 Now, as you can see with the Chrome browser, it is just a little bit too. 37 00:02:40,220 --> 00:02:46,130 While I would say compact and even though I'm doing this course and it quite a light screen, I'm actually 38 00:02:46,130 --> 00:02:50,450 doing this on a 65 inch screen TV and I can see this quite easily. 39 00:02:50,750 --> 00:02:56,690 If you want a laptop or maybe just a normal sized monitor, then you might struggle to see some of the 40 00:02:56,690 --> 00:03:00,560 finer details, let's say, within your internet browser and these other applications. 41 00:03:00,920 --> 00:03:05,900 But with some of the applications, if you just hover your mouse over that application, hold down the 42 00:03:05,900 --> 00:03:08,930 control key and scroll forward with your mouse. 43 00:03:10,810 --> 00:03:12,820 You can zoom in a little bit like this. 44 00:03:16,490 --> 00:03:19,550 I think I've already shown you this in one of the first tutorials. 45 00:03:20,150 --> 00:03:24,440 Now it doesn't work and all of the applications, so for instance, it won't work with the video and 46 00:03:24,440 --> 00:03:26,280 it won't work with or actually, maybe it will. 47 00:03:26,300 --> 00:03:27,050 This does trial. 48 00:03:27,530 --> 00:03:28,250 Try this out. 49 00:03:28,700 --> 00:03:32,840 OK, it does work with the photos, and I do know it works with the File Explorer. 50 00:03:35,230 --> 00:03:40,270 So as you can see, I can change the size by holding the control button and scrolling back and forward 51 00:03:40,540 --> 00:03:42,160 with the wheel on my mouse. 52 00:03:42,490 --> 00:03:48,430 If you're not using a mouse, you can just hold down the control button and put two fingers on the mouse 53 00:03:48,430 --> 00:03:52,450 pad on your laptop and push upwards and down. 54 00:03:52,900 --> 00:03:54,700 And you should get the same effect. 55 00:03:55,300 --> 00:03:59,980 And then finally, if you remember the shortcut, you can hold down the Windows key and press the plus 56 00:03:59,980 --> 00:04:01,150 icon on your keyboard. 57 00:04:01,840 --> 00:04:05,510 And this effects will happen where you zoom in like this. 58 00:04:05,540 --> 00:04:07,060 You can just move your cursor around. 59 00:04:07,330 --> 00:04:12,550 So like I said, you should remember this from one of the first tutorials in this course, and you can 60 00:04:12,550 --> 00:04:16,390 just adjust the view here within this panel. 61 00:04:20,330 --> 00:04:26,840 So anyway, that is the snap layout feature pretty handy stuff, I think it really was a good idea in 62 00:04:26,840 --> 00:04:28,940 the past with Windows 10 and Windows seven. 63 00:04:29,300 --> 00:04:33,350 This is the kind of thing I wanted, and this is probably the reason why they've actually implemented 64 00:04:33,350 --> 00:04:36,350 it this time because it is really handy to have.
