After Mac Sequoia 15.o update some of the "window resize & moving" actions don't work anymore. These are the ones that I have identified so far:

• Maximize Window Right Half
• Maximize Window Left Half
• Maximize Window
• Resize Window to Top Right Quarter/Corner
• Resize Window to Top Left Quarter/Corner
• Resize Window to Bottom Left Quarter/Corner
• Resize Window to Bottom Right Quarter/Corner

in case the native snapping options don't work for you, you can always switch back to the classic snapping behavior::

What language is your system set to?

FYI, after installing macOS Sequoia 15.0 and using Better Snap Tool version 1.9.12, "Native System Resizing," I get a shortened border around all my application windows. (see screenshot)

However, if I use the "Classic System Resizing," all my application windows expand fully without shortening borders. (see screenshot)

Same here!
Have been a beta tester for Sequoia and everything have worked as it should. But after the update to 15.0 all shortcuts that include the numerical keyboard doesn't work (which for me is Maximize Window, Move window to next monitor, Resize to left and right, and Corners).
BetterSnapTool version: 1.9.12

@jpw, see Snapping Windows not expanding edges of windows - #2 by Andreas_Hegenberg

@AndreasCarlsson does classic snapping mode work for you? Which language is your system set to?

Yes it does. Should have tried that first, sorry!
(It's strange though, all system settings for this are turned off)

PS. Swedish btw.

Was having the same problem (English). Shortcuts for maximizing etc. stopped working. The "Use classic... resizing" fixed it for me.

Do you maybe still have the native tiling enabled? BTT/BST's native integration only works if the native snapping is disabled in System Settings => Desktop & Dock

Thanks for the quick tip. I turned off the three settings and returned to "Native System Resizing" instead of using "Classic System Resizing."

I don't see a setting for "native snapping" in "Desktop & Dock". What is it called? There is a "Tile by dragging windows to screen edges" which is already disabled (it says "window tiling requires 'displays have separate spaces' to be enabled").

My "Resize to Left/Middle/Right Third" (mapped to ⌥+1/2/3) are working. But "Maximize Window" (⌥+a), "Maximize Window Left/Right Half" (⌥+q/w) are not working. Thank you.

ah if displays have separate spaces is disabled you must use the classic snapping (in the BTT snapping settings). It should already do that automatically, but maybe there is a bug with this scenario
