I posted the same question then realized the document contained guidance on this one. I think you want to have multiple apps open next to each other and if this is correct then this will help you.


  • "To create a group of windows in the center, drag a thumbnail to the center window, or press the Shift key while clicking the thumbnail. The image above shows two groups: Keynote and Finder windows are grouped in the center, and News and Music windows are grouped in the bottom thumbnail."


Grouping them allows them to open when you click on that thumbnail group. For example, If you want to work on a PPT and Word document at the same time this works.
