<\/p>\nHere\u2019s what may be the most subtle new feature of Sierra: when you\u2019re dragging one window next to another, Sierra makes them \u201cstick\u201d slightly when their edges align perfectly. You\u2019re most likely to notice this in the Finder, if you work regularly in two side-by-side windows for moving files around your system, but it applies to\u00a0any two windows, even those from different apps. To see this effect in action, open two windows and then drag one toward the other, noticing how it stops briefly when the window edges meet up. If the feature gets in the way of aligning windows as you want, press Option to disable it while you\u2019re dragging. This window alignment feature won\u2019t change how you use your Mac, but it should make for a neater screen.<\/p>\n
