Window Magnet lets you attach any window to your cursor so it follows your pointer as you move. This is useful for keeping a reference window — a chat, a preview, documentation — visible and within reach as you work across your screen.

How to Use

  1. Activate Window Magnet — Use your assigned keyboard shortcut (unbound by default) or activate it from the tray menu.
  2. Select a window — Click on the window you want to attach.
  3. Choose an anchor point — Pick where on the window the cursor attaches. There are 8 anchor positions: top-left, top-center, top-right, center-left, center-right, bottom-left, bottom-center, and bottom-right.
  4. The window now follows your cursor — Move your mouse and the window tracks along with it.
To release the window, activate Window Magnet again or press the shortcut key.
On macOS, Window Magnet requires the Accessibility permission to move windows. See Granting Permissions if you haven’t enabled it yet.
