About AnyDrag
AnyDrag moves a window when you hold a modifier key and drag anywhere inside it, so you do not have to aim for the title bar. Holding the modifier and double-clicking maximizes the window, and holding it while right-clicking opens a panel for halves, quarters and moving a window to another display. It can also resize from the nearest corner, and optional keyboard shortcuts tile the focused window. It is for people who arrange many windows with a mouse or trackpad.
AnyDrag requires macOS 13 or later and Accessibility permission, which the app asks for on first launch. The DMG is signed with a Developer ID certificate and notarized. Optional anonymous usage statistics can be turned off with one toggle. A known issue: with macOS three-finger drag switched on, the window shows a one-frame snap at the end of a drag.
