### To minimize all notepad windows
# select-window *notepad | ForEach { $_.Window.SetWindowVisualState("Minimized") }

### To Close all notepad windows
# select-window *notepad | ForEach { $_.Window.Close() }

### To resize all notepad windows, be sure to make then "Normal" first (not minimized/maximized)
#  select-window *notepad | ForEach { $_.Window.SetWindowVisualState("Normal"); $_.Transform.Resize( 400, 600) }

### To tile two notepad windows
#  Add-Type -Assembly System.Windows.Forms # so we can figure out the screen size
#  $bounds = [System.Windows.Forms.Screen]::PrimaryScreen.Bounds
#
#  Select-window *notepad | Select -First 2 | Tee -Var Windows | 
#     ForEach { 
#         $_.Window.SetWindowVisualState("Normal")
#         $_.Transform.Resize( ($bounds.Width/2), $bounds.Height ) 
#     }
#  $windows[0].Transform.Move( ($bounds.Left), ($bounds.Top) )
#  $windows[1].Transform.Move( ($bounds.Left + $bounds.Width/2),($bounds.Top)  )
