[QUOTE="Complexity, post: 1835955, member: 403572"] I think I need to establish this first. There is something odd about how the Ring app behaves when the Video Window is open which also affects how Spectacle behaves. When I run Spectacle, every action I tried only worked for the Main Window. When I opened a Video Window, Spectacle continued to work on the Main Window. The Video Window remained in its exact location. For example, when I select [I]Bottom Half[/I], the Main Window is at the bottom, taking up half the screen while the Video Window is [I]still[/I] in it's same position (I can see the Finder behind it). I think this is a bug in the Ring app itself. I noticed changes in the Ring app menus and their functions when I opened a Video Window. With only the Main Window open, there is a menu option named [I]Window[/I]. Clicking on it displays 5 drop down options: [LIST=1] [*] Minimize ⌘M [*] Zoom [*] Bring All to Front [*] Main Window ⌘1 [*]✓ Ring [/LIST] When I open a Video Window, I get a window on top, but the drop down options for [I]Window[/I] do not include it. [LIST=1] [*] Minimize ⌘M ← this one [U]stops[/U] working for any window. [*] Zoom ← this one still works, but [U]only[/U] for the Main Window. [*][COLOR=#a9a9a9] Bring All to Front[/COLOR] [*][COLOR=#a9a9a9] Main Window ⌘1[/COLOR] [*][COLOR=#a9a9a9]✓ Ring[/COLOR] [/LIST] I also noticed that I cannot open [I]Preferences[/I] when the video window is open. Also, Close Windows closes both windows, not just the Main one. This effectively hides the Ring app. When I go back to the Ring app, both windows are open like before. Does any of this sound normal or is there is bug in the Ring app (would not surprise me). Or have I misunderstood how to properly use Spectacle? [/QUOTE]
