Hi,
I'd like to ask a question about the native split screen feature in BTT / macOS
I know this subject is controversial..! In that not many people seem to like this feature of macOS, and don't advise using it.
Well - I do like it and I want to use it!
So - I heard on MPU recently that BTT can automate the process of opening two apps and making them full screen / split.
So I immediately bought the lifetime package.
however, I can't figure out how to get this to work.
(Note - I also bought Keyboard Maestro and have tried many times to make the split screen thing work with that - no luck)
anyway -
2019 iMac 27"
macOS 10.14.6 Mojave
I want to open two apps from a macro - and then have one on the left, the other on the right - must be using the full screen split - not just fitting into half a screen each.
(I don't want to hear reasons why I shouldn't do this...)
Is there an example workflow somewhere I can look at to get this working? Because right now I can't seem to get my actions to do it.
what I'm doing now:
Launch App
Launch Second App
Show first App
Open Native Mac OS X Split View for Window (Left)
Show second App
Open Native Mac OS X Split View for Window (Right)
and what happens is:
my apps open... the full screen / split doesn't trigger at all.
what am I doing wrong? Or is this just never going to work?
thanks!
