Mac屏幕越来越小，但这并不意味着您使用的软件会这样。如果您正在为Mac上的屏幕空间而苦苦挣扎，您需要寻找更有效地利用空间的方法。做到这一点的一个好方法是使用 macOS 的内置分屏功能来一次查看和使用多个窗口。
您可以将屏幕一分为二，左侧或右侧有两个窗口。您还可以使用诸如Moom(Moom)之类的分屏第三方工具，它允许您使用四个角中的每一个将Mac上的屏幕分成象限。(Mac)以下是使用这些工具在Mac设备上分屏的方法。
如何在 Mac 设备上分屏(How To Split Screen On Mac Devices)
如果您使用的是 macOS，那么您已经熟悉任何打开的窗口左上角的圆形彩色窗口控制按钮。红色圆形按钮关闭窗口，黄色圆形按钮将其最小化。然而，绿色按钮用于在窗口当前处于活动状态时对其进行操作。
- 要查看可用的选项，请使用鼠标或触控板将鼠标悬停在绿色按钮上。您可能需要单击该按钮并按住它以在旧版本的 macOS 中查看这些选项。
- 绿色图标下方将出现一个弹出菜单。其中包括进入全屏(Enter full screen)的选项，顾名思义，它将最大化打开的窗口以使用全屏，隐藏Dock和其他元素。然而，更重要的是两个拆分视图选项- 将窗口平铺到屏幕左侧(Tile Window to Left of Screen )和将窗口平铺到屏幕右侧(Tile Window to Right of Screen)。
- 单击这些选项中的任何一个都会调整打开窗口的大小以占据可用屏幕的一半——它还会隐藏Dock和菜单栏。此时，您需要选择第二个窗口来占据屏幕的另一半。
- 默认情况下，使用拆分视图功能的窗口将平均共享屏幕。窗口到位后，您可以更改此设置，方法是使用键盘或触控板按住屏幕中间的黑条，然后向左或向右移动黑条以相应地调整窗口大小。
您只能使用 macOS 内置的拆分视图功能来并排查看两个窗口，并且默认情况下它们会进入全屏模式。如果您不想使用全屏，让 Dock 和菜单栏可见，您可以将窗口大小调整到类似的位置。
- 为此，将鼠标悬停在左上角的绿色窗口按钮上，同时按住Mac键盘上的选项键。(option key)将鼠标悬停在绿色窗口按钮上时您将看到的图标将从两个箭头(two arrows)变为加号(plus symbol)。
- 替代选项将出现在绿色窗口按钮下方的弹出菜单中。您可以通过按缩放(Zoom)选项最大化窗口而不进入全屏模式。但是，要将窗口平铺以使用屏幕的一半，请单击将窗口移动到屏幕左侧(Move Window to Left Side of Screen)或将窗口移动到屏幕右侧(Move Window to Right Side of Screen)选项，具体取决于您要使用屏幕的哪一侧。
- 单击这些选项中的任何一个都会调整窗口大小以占据Mac屏幕的一半，但与完整的拆分视图选项不同，您仍然可以查看和使用Dock和菜单栏。但是，与完整的拆分视图模式不同，您将无法同时调整两个窗口的大小。
在 macOS 上使用 Moom 调整 Windows 大小(Resizing Windows Using Moom On macOS)
如果您想在 macOS 上使用允许您同时调整两个以上窗口大小的拆分视图模式，则需要考虑使用第三方窗口管理软件。有多种免费和付费选项可供选择，但我们建议使用Moom。订阅之前，您可以在Mac上试用该软件的免费试用版。
- 首先，从 Moom 网站下载试用版，或(from the Moom website)从 Mac App Store(install Moom from the Mac App Store)购买并安装 Moom 。安装后，您可以从Launchpad或单击 Finder 中的Applications文件夹启动Moom 。
- 您可能需要授权Moom才能访问。为此，请单击左上角的Apple 菜单图标，然后按(Apple menu icon)System Preferences。
- 在此处，单击Security & Privacy > Privacy > Accessibility，并确保在允许以下应用程序控制您的计算机(Allow the apps below to control your computer)列表 中启用了Moom选项。(Moom)
- 您可能需要单击左下角的锁定图标(lock icon)并提供您的密码或Touch ID凭据才能先进行更改。
- 如果您在启用辅助功能访问后使用Moom有任何问题，请重新启动您的(Moom)Mac，然后在重新启动后重新启动Moom。
- Moom运行后，将鼠标悬停在打开窗口左上角的绿色窗口按钮上。(Moom)默认的 macOS 下拉菜单将替换为Moom自带的，不同的图标显示不同的显示模式。左侧或右侧(gray block on the left or right)带有灰色块的图标将调整您的窗口大小以占据屏幕的左侧或右侧。
- 您还可以选择调整窗口大小以占据屏幕的顶部或底部，从而在中间水平分割显示。按下顶部或底部带有灰色块(gray block at the top or bottom )的图标可调整窗口大小以占据屏幕的顶部或底部。
- Moom还允许您将Mac上的屏幕分割成象限，调整窗口大小并将它们放置在左右两边的上角和下角。按住(Press)选项键(option key)查看这些选项，然后将鼠标悬停在绿色窗口按钮上。按(Press)Moom下拉菜单中显示的任何图标以相应地调整窗口大小。
在 macOS 上最大化您的屏幕空间(Maximizing Your Screen Real Estate On macOS)
无论您使用内置的拆分视图模式，还是决定使用Moom(Moom)等第三方应用程序来控制您的窗口，您都应该尝试在 macOS 上充分利用您的屏幕空间。然而，了解如何在Mac设备上进行分屏只能让你走到这一步——你可能会认为一个显示器是不够的。
但是，在您购买第二个屏幕之前，请考虑使用 iPad 作为第二个显示器(using an iPad as a second monitor)。请在下面的评论中告诉我们有关充分利用 macOS 显示屏的macOS 提示。(macOS tips)
How To Split The Screen on a Mac
Mac screens get smаller and smaller, but that doesn’t mean that the ѕoftware you’re using does. If уou’re struggling with screen real estate on your Mac, you’ll need to look at wayѕ to use thе space more effectively. A good wаy to do this is by using macOS’ built-in fеаtures for split screens to see and use multiple windows at once.
You can split your screen in half, with two windows on the left or right. There are also third-party tools for split screens like Moom you can use instead, which allow you how to split the screen on a Mac into quadrants, using each of the four corners. Here’s how to split screen on Mac devices using these tools.
How To Split Screen On Mac Devices
If you’re using macOS, you’ll already be familiar with the round, colored window control buttons in the top-left corner of any open window. The red, circular button closes a window and the yellow, circular button minimizes it. The green button, however, is used for manipulating your window while it’s currently active.
- To see what options you have available to you, hover over the green button using your mouse or trackpad. You may need to click the button and keep it held down to view these options in older versions of macOS.
- A pop-up menu will appear underneath the green icon. These include options to Enter full screen which, as the name suggests, will maximize your open window to use your full screen, hiding the Dock and other elements. More importantly, however, are the two split view options—Tile Window to Left of Screen and Tile Window to Right of Screen.
- Clicking either of these options will resize your open window to take up half of the available screen—it’ll also hide the Dock and menu bar. You’ll need to select a second window to take up the other half of the screen at this point.
- By default, windows using the split view feature will share the screen equally. You can change this once the windows are in place by using your keyboard or trackpad to press and hold the black bar in the middle of the screen, then moving the bar left or right to resize your windows accordingly.
You can only use macOS’ built-in split view feature to see two windows, side by side, and they will enter full-screen mode by default. If you’d prefer not to use full screen, leaving your Dock and menu bar visible, you can resize the windows into a similar position.
- To do this, hover over the green window button in the top-left while holding down the option key on your Mac keyboard. The icon you’ll see while hovering over the green window button will change from two arrows to a plus symbol.
- Alternative options will appear in the pop-up menu below the green window button. You can maximize the window without entering the full-screen mode by pressing the Zoom option. However, to tile your window to use half of the screen, click the Move Window to Left Side of Screen or Move Window to Right Side of Screen options, depending on which side of your screen you want to use.
- Clicking either of these options will resize the window to take up half of your Mac screen but, unlike the full split-view options, you’ll still be able to view and use your Dock and menu bar. You won’t be able to resize both windows together at the same time, however, unlike the full split-view mode.
Resizing Windows Using Moom On macOS
If you want to use a split view mode on macOS that allows you to resize more than two windows at the same time, you’ll need to consider using third-party window management software. Several free and paid options are available, but we recommend using Moom. A free trial of the software is available to try it out on your Mac before you subscribe.
- You may need to authorize Moom to have accessibility access. To do this, click the Apple menu icon in the top-left, then press System Preferences.
- From here, click Security & Privacy > Privacy > Accessibility and make sure the option for Moom is enabled in the Allow the apps below to control your computer list.
- You may need to click the lock icon in the bottom-left and provide your password or Touch ID credentials to be able to make changes first.
- If you have any problems using Moom after enabling accessibility access, restart your Mac, then relaunch Moom after restarting.
- Once Moom is running, hover over your green window button in the top-left of an open window. The default macOS drop-down menu will be replaced with Moom’s own, with different icons showing different display modes. The icons with a gray block on the left or right will resize your window to take up the left or right of your screen.
- You also have options to resize your windows to take up the top or bottom of your screen, splitting your display in the middle horizontally. Press the icons with a gray block at the top or bottom to resize your window to take up the top or bottom of your screen instead.
- Moom also allows you to split your screen on your Mac into quadrants, resizing windows and placing them in the top and bottom corners on both the left and the right. Press and hold the option key to view these options, then hover over the green window button. Press any of the shown icons in the Moom drop-down menu to resize your windows accordingly.
Maximizing Your Screen Real Estate On macOS
Whether you use the built-in split-view mode or you decide to use a third-party app like Moom to control your windows, you should try to make full use of your screen real estate on macOS. Knowing how to do split-screen on Mac devices can only get you so far, however—you may decide one display just isn’t enough.
Before you buy a second screen, however, think about using an iPad as a second monitor instead. Let us know your macOS tips for making full use of the macOS display in the comments below.
