=TITLE Arranging Windows
When you are working with stacked windows and select a
window, it moves to the front of the stack and is given
input focus. But if a larger window obscures a smaller
window, you can't select that small window without
moving the larger window out of the way. If you use the
title bar to move the larger window, you disrupt your
work arrangement.

menu, you can shuffle your windows without moving them
to another location. Shuffle Down and Shuffle Up lower
and raise windows on the screen without affecting which
window is active. Next Window and Previous Window
change which window is active. By default, they also
raise the window to the top of the screen.

options to arrange your windows, double click on an
