Title: How does the Titlebar Roll-Up work??
Post by: Snacko on January 27, 2026, 03:05:25 AM
I see the Settings for the Titlebar Roll-up, but I cannot find any information on how to use it in Win11.

If I double-click my titlebars it maximizes the window.  If I double-click on the edge of a window(when the resize cursor appears) the window snaps to the top and bottom of the screen.  But I don't know what else to try to make it work.. 

I wonder if I have some conflicting software somewhere?
Where/How do I make a window roll-up?   ::)

It's done by either a hotkey action on the active window (see below), or the Power menu by middle-clicking the window's icon area (first screenshot), or from the app's "PC Tweaks" menu to roll up all windows (second screenshot). Take your pick. :)

When a window is rolled-up, you can click-and-hold the live thumbnail at the far left to show the window again until the hold is released, making it a quick way to see the window. There's also tweaks in the app's Settings to modify the rolled-up behavior (in the "Settings > Tweaks for your PC > Windows > Title bar roll-up" section).

(Start)
HOW TO USE: Copy from Start to End, and then paste into an action.
REFERENCE : See an example of pasting at alomware.com/paste.png
0001 Window: Assign active ""
0002 Window: Roll up to title "toggle"
(End)

Just a reminder: rolled-up windows have a live thumbnail of the window at the left of it. Try it with a video, and the rolled-up window will appear like below. There's also settings to use a larger thumbnail size, and keep the rolled-up window the same width as the actual window or be shorter.

If you need to briefly peek at the full window while it's rolled-up, just click and hold the thumbnail to roll the window down again. When you release the mouse, it rolls back up automatically.
