I used BetterTouchTool to make it maximize the current window without full-screen mode.

Apple sets that button to take the current window to full-screen mode, but I don’t want that. For example, you can reconfigure the Mac’s green window button. You may know BetterTouchTool for its ability to hotwire your trackpad, but there are so many other uses. With BetterTouchTool, you can completely re-design your Touch Bar, configure various Magic Mouse and Trackpad gestures, define keyboard shortcuts, bind standard mouse buttons, use the Siri Remote with your Mac and do tons more. While Apple makes some excellent trackpads and mice, the built-in gestures are just a taste of what you could do with those devices. This week MacSparky is sponsored by BetterTouchTool, the Mac App that gives your input devices superpowers.
