I found a solution for Window users to be able to drag any open window just like Linux users. This is great for large dialogs in Gimp that are too large to be seen...

Also for Windows users, you can hold the "Ctrl+Alt" and hit the left or right arrow key to flip your screen on it's side.

Note: This is a "Windows Only" executable script.

Wallace, I did not understand what does the "Easy window dragging" script.
I do not use Linux.
Where to install the script?

Extract the files and place the "AltWindowDrag" folder where you like. I put the folder in my (D:) drive. When you run the "AltWindowDrag.exe" file, a icon shows in your taskbar. If you right click on the icon in the taskbar, you can chose to "Suspend, Pause or Exit the script.

The icon is "green" with a white "H" in the center.
BTW... I'm running XP and will get my new Windows 7 machine will arrive today (Tuesday Mar 11th 2014).

From the link:
http://www.autohotkey.com/docs/scripts/EasyWindowDrag.ahk

I get a script file not a .exe file. What can I do?

Use this link... http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows- ... n-windows/
The download reads like this in blue Download AltWindowDrag AutoHotkey Script & Executable, near the bottom of the page.

Sorry, Carlos, I thought it was a script.

It is a script, but it's a .ahk or "AutoHotkey" script for windows that has an executable or .exe to run the script without any additional applications needed to run it.

So, can .ahk go on the end of a script? I thought all of them ended with scm. Plug-ins need the .exe extension in Windows so is it a plug-in?
Anyway, it would be nice to know.

AutoHotkey is a stand alone Windows program seperate from Gimp. AutoHotkey uses scripts with .ahk extension.

It's not for Gimp, It's a Windows script.
AutoHotkey or .ahk scripts are for Windows. You can automate almost anything with a keystrokes or mouse clicks using these scripts.

Yes, only that if you have a "AutoHotkey .exe" file, you don't need to install anything just run the .exe file.

Thanks for the explanation Wallace.

Sure thing Molly, just hope I'm not confusing people.

Nah, I am the only one that does that.

OK, Wallace. Now, I understood it. The .exe file works well.

Do you have the "Drag Functionality" working with Windows now?

Yes, I do, Wallace.
