MacBook Keyboard Shortcuts to Position Window to Left or Right side of Screen

Refer: https://www.paulsahner.com/posts/window-movement

  • Apple Logo, Upper left hand corner
  • System Settings
  • Keyboard, Keyboard Shortcuts...
  • App Shortcuts
  • Choose "All Applications"

You are going to add two settings by clicking the plus key. I'm using [Ctrl]+[Windows]+[Alt]+[Right Arrow] and [Ctrl]+[Windows]+[Alt]+[Left Arrow] for my settings.

You will use the following menu titles, you need to type these EXACTLY, and copy and paste does NOT work, since it assumes you are setting your keyboard combination.

Move Window to Left Side of Screen
Move Window to Right Side of Screen

Save each setting and click "Done" to complete.
