# General Window Actions

> Fullscreen, maximize, center, minimize, and hide window actions

## Overview

General window actions provide essential window management functionality. These actions are defined in the static `general` array (line 75):

```swift theme={null}
static var general: [WindowDirection] { 
    [.fullscreen, .maximize, .almostMaximize, .maximizeHeight, 
     .maximizeWidth, .fillAvailableSpace, .center, .macOSCenter, 
     .minimize, .minimizeOthers, .hide] 
}
```

## Fullscreen & Maximize Actions

### fullscreen

<ParamField path="fullscreen" type="WindowDirection">
  Enters native macOS fullscreen mode for the frontmost window.

  **Raw Value:** `"Fullscreen"`

  **URL Scheme:** `loop://Fullscreen`

  **Frame Values:** `CGRect(x: 0, y: 0, width: 1.0, height: 1.0)` (line 113)

  **Behavior:**

  * Triggers macOS native fullscreen
  * Creates a new Space for the window
  * Hides menu bar and dock
  * Different from `.maximize` which resizes within current space
</ParamField>

### maximize

<ParamField path="maximize" type="WindowDirection">
  Maximizes the window to fill the entire available screen space.

  **Raw Value:** `"Maximize"`

  **URL Scheme:** `loop://Maximize`

  **Frame Values:** `CGRect(x: 0, y: 0, width: 1.0, height: 1.0)` (line 111)

  **Behavior:**

  * Resizes to 100% of available screen space
  * Stays in current Space (doesn't create new Space)
  * Menu bar and dock remain accessible
</ParamField>

### almostMaximize

<ParamField path="almostMaximize" type="WindowDirection">
  Maximizes the window to 90% of screen space, centered with equal margins.

  **Raw Value:** `"AlmostMaximize"`

  **URL Scheme:** `loop://AlmostMaximize`

  **Frame Values:** `CGRect(x: 0.5/10.0, y: 0.5/10.0, width: 9.0/10.0, height: 9.0/10.0)` (line 112)

  **Behavior:**

  * Window occupies 90% width and 90% height
  * 5% margin on all sides
  * Useful for focusing on content while maintaining visual context
</ParamField>

### maximizeHeight

<ParamField path="maximizeHeight" type="WindowDirection">
  Maximizes only the window height, maintaining current width and horizontal position.

  **Raw Value:** `"MaximizeHeight"`

  **URL Scheme:** `loop://MaximizeHeight`

  **Behavior:**

  * Extends window vertically to full screen height
  * Preserves current horizontal position and width
  * Useful for documents and code editing
</ParamField>

### maximizeWidth

<ParamField path="maximizeWidth" type="WindowDirection">
  Maximizes only the window width, maintaining current height and vertical position.

  **Raw Value:** `"MaximizeWidth"`

  **URL Scheme:** `loop://MaximizeWidth`

  **Behavior:**

  * Extends window horizontally to full screen width
  * Preserves current vertical position and height
  * Useful for wide content like timelines or spreadsheets
</ParamField>

### fillAvailableSpace

<ParamField path="fillAvailableSpace" type="WindowDirection">
  Expands the window to fill all available space not occupied by other windows.

  **Raw Value:** `"FillAvailableSpace"`

  **URL Scheme:** `loop://FillAvailableSpace`

  **Behavior:**

  * Intelligently detects gaps and available screen space
  * Resizes to fill space without overlapping other windows
  * Useful for tiling workflows
</ParamField>

## Centering Actions

### center

<ParamField path="center" type="WindowDirection">
  Centers the window on screen, maintaining its current size.

  **Raw Value:** `"Center"`

  **URL Scheme:** `loop://Center`

  **Behavior:**

  * Moves window to screen center
  * Preserves current window dimensions
  * Loop's default centering behavior

  **Note:** Identified by `willCenter` property (line 97)
</ParamField>

### macOSCenter

<ParamField path="macOSCenter" type="WindowDirection">
  Centers the window using macOS native centering behavior.

  **Raw Value:** `"MacOSCenter"`

  **URL Scheme:** `loop://MacOSCenter`

  **Behavior:**

  * Uses macOS system centering algorithm
  * May differ slightly from Loop's `.center` action
  * Preserves current window dimensions

  **Note:** Identified by `willCenter` property (line 97)
</ParamField>

## Window Management Actions

### minimize

<ParamField path="minimize" type="WindowDirection">
  Minimizes the frontmost window to the Dock.

  **Raw Value:** `"Minimize"`

  **URL Scheme:** `loop://Minimize`

  **Behavior:**

  * Sends window to Dock with minimize animation
  * Window remains open but hidden
  * Click Dock icon to restore

  **Note:** Does not have a radial menu angle (line 101)
</ParamField>

### minimizeOthers

<ParamField path="minimizeOthers" type="WindowDirection">
  Minimizes all windows except the frontmost window.

  **Raw Value:** `"MinimizeOthers"`

  **URL Scheme:** `loop://MinimizeOthers`

  **Behavior:**

  * Keeps current window visible
  * Minimizes all other windows to Dock
  * Useful for quick workspace cleanup

  **Note:** Does not have a radial menu angle (line 101)
</ParamField>

### hide

<ParamField path="hide" type="WindowDirection">
  Hides the frontmost application and all its windows.

  **Raw Value:** `"Hide"`

  **URL Scheme:** `loop://Hide`

  **Behavior:**

  * Hides entire application (not just current window)
  * Equivalent to Cmd+H
  * Use Cmd+Tab or click app icon to restore

  **Note:** Does not have a radial menu angle (line 101)
</ParamField>

## Usage Examples

### URL Scheme

```bash theme={null}
# Maximize the frontmost window
open "loop://Maximize"

# Almost maximize with margins
open "loop://AlmostMaximize"

# Center the window
open "loop://Center"

# Minimize all other windows
open "loop://MinimizeOthers"
```

### Keyboard Shortcuts

Bind these actions to keyboard shortcuts in Loop's keybind settings using their raw values:

* `Maximize`
* `Center`
* `Minimize`
* etc.

## Properties

General actions have specific computed property behaviors:

<ResponseField name="shouldFillRadialMenu" type="Bool">
  Returns `true` for: `.fullscreen`, `.maximize`, `.almostMaximize`, `.maximizeHeight`, `.maximizeWidth`, `.fillAvailableSpace`, and centering actions (line 106)

  When true, these actions fill the entire radial menu circle instead of occupying a specific angle.
</ResponseField>

<ResponseField name="hasRadialMenuAngle" type="Bool">
  Returns `false` for: `.minimize`, `.minimizeOthers`, `.hide` (line 101-102)

  These actions don't appear in the radial menu's directional interface.
</ResponseField>
