Windows 7 Viewing 2 web pages side by side

[Mike]

Hi all

Viewing 2 web pages side by side on a monitor

Is this something windows 7 does auto without the need of resizing pages etc

Many thanks for your help.

Regards

Mike

Yes just open up two browser windows, grab one of them and drag it all the way to the left, grab the other and drag all the way to the right, they should both take up exactly half the screen automatically

Getting onto win7 I just love some of the new features, like shaking a window which will minimise all other windows

I minimise everything(windows button and m)
show the 2 browser windows
right click on the task bar, and tile side by side or whatever they call it.

How do you do that. Im really new to windows

[Stuart]

Click the title bar of the window, and while holding the mouse button, drag the mouse from side to side.

Just tried that loads of times and nothing happening. Dont know what I'm doing wrong.

Open up 3 or 4 windows and have them overlayed on top of each other, then grab one of them and shake it from side to side and if you're on windows 7 all of the other windows should minimize themselves..
