Windows XP Gigabook For Dummies
Arranging Multiple Windows Side-by-Side
Adapted From: Windows XP Gigabook For Dummies

There's a very quick and easy way to arrange multiple windows on your desktop. You can tile them side-by-side (vertically) or one-on-top (horizontally). Here's how:

  1. Make sure both the windows are open and thus have icons that appear on the Windows taskbar.

  2. On the taskbar, click one window's icon, hold down the Ctrl key, and click the other window's icon.

  3. Right-click one of the selected icons and choose Tile Horizontally or Tile Vertically.

The selected windows are tiled.
