Split view not working in macOS Catalina

When I hover over the green full-screen button in the upper-left corner of a window. Or click and hold the button, I don't get the option to choose ”Tile Window to Left of Screen” or ”Tile Window to Right of Screen” from the menu. Any ideas?

drag an drop from the mission control.


Not all apps support the Split Screen view.



If you’re using an app full screen,

you can quickly choose another app to work with in Split View. Press

Control-Up Arrow (or swipe up with three or four fingers) to enter

Mission Control, then drag a window from Mission Control onto the

thumbnail of the full-screen app in the Spaces bar. You can also drag

one app thumbnail onto another in the Spaces bar.
