QUESTION :
I would like to extend one of my application windows below the bottom of the screen. I can easily extend it beyond the left/right sides (simply drag it to one side, then resize, and repeat), however I haven’t been able to achieve a vertical resize of the window.
Is there a modification to the OS I can do to enable this behavior? I’ve also looked at simulating an external display, as I believe a higher resolution external display does enable resizing below the bottom of the screen; however I haven’t seen anyway to make this work, and I don’t have access to a real external display currently.
If you’re wondering why I need to do this, it’s for a screen capture software—I need to fit a large amount of content into the window at once.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
ANSWER :
Not sure how to unlock expending a window vertically beyond the screen.
1/ You may try to run an apple script like this:
tell application "XXX"
set bounds of front window to {x, y, width, height}
end tell
with setting a high value for height
. Like {30, 30, 1200, 4000}
2/ If it’s to capture a web page, there are plugins for that.
3/ Or Snagit allows capturing with scrolling feature. But it won’t be free after the trial expires.
