- Captain Tray Pro 5.1, Undoubtedly Useful. — Personally I use it. I like to have my things well arranged and each in the right place. This software allows me to organize windows on my desktop. It looks like my favorite two-panel file-managers, Total Commander and Frigate. In fact, moving a window from the taskbar to a tray and vice versa is as simple as moving a file between panels. Of course, any application can be moved…
- CS Desktop Notes v 3.6, Stick Them *Inside* the Monitor — Those pieces of paper, swarmed all over your monitor, desk, keyboard, walls around, and doors and windows — yes, those motley things with illegible, crooked pen marks, which you call «sticky notes». Aren’t they really ugly? Don’t you want to have a different kind of notes on your Windows desktop — those that you could fill out with neat, printed letters, those that you could copy text to and from? They would…
- Weather Alarm Clock 1.2. Whatever-In-Tray — The Windows «system notifications area», a.k.a. «system tray», was eventually designed to be a uniform place for helpful information. However, in fact, it’s not very useful now; only a couple of colorful icons not related to the system make it look pretty. There is only one really useful thing in the tray; namely, the clock, you know. But can you twist any use from the tray clock besides just showing clock…
- Actual Window Manager 4.5, Take More Than The Best Of Your Windows — Despite some evident drawbacks, Windows has the right concept of «Windows» (ha-ha). This concept is proven to be very effective for organizing several «primary» tasks (that you work with) alongside with many «secondary» ones (which you just observe or rarely switch to or consult with). But, the more intensively you work, the stronger you feel that Windows’ current window-organizing capabilities are far not enough for…
- Amaze Copy — From the first glance, the issue of saving web pages to your hard drive doesn’t seem to be important at all. We all know the ‘File — Save as’ method and seem to be quite happy with it. However, have you ever given a thought to its obvious disadvantages? Sometimes it works and sometimes the browser apologetically notifies you that the page cannot be saved for some reason. Sometimes, when the page seems fully…
- PixClip, Clip It, Paste It, Save It — Does it make sense to learn or use those full-featured image processing monsters when all you need to do is to just clip a picture off the screen and then paste it to a document or save it to file? With the right tools, the job can be completed in just a few clicks. Check out the PixClip software by António Maria Torre do Valle. This handy «gadget» starts with your operating system and…
- Actual Window Guard 4.5, Brings Order To Desktop Windows — Typical today’s desktop is full of windows opened simultaneously. Unfortunately, the level of control over those windows is the Stone Age level: you can either maximize window to take the full area, or you should drag in, drag in, drag in them by hands, if you want to work with more of them one-window-at-a-time. Sad situation, but, for your today’s lack, I know the solution: Actual Window Guard. The…
- EzPaste, Copy/Paste Made Easy — Excel and PowerPoint — these two often walk within one another’s reach but almost never do they meet one one’s desktop. It’s just way too hard to make them «talk», as hard as to copy something from Excel and paste it to PowerPoint, unless you’ve got EzPaste. The software fills in the communication gap between these office applications, providing the intuitive way to exchanging data…
- StudioLine Photo Classic: Intuitive Enhancement and Archiving — What’s the good of over-enhancing a photograph if there is no way to find it when it is most needed? On the other hand, browsing through a streamlined gallery of sloppy snapshots doesn’t do a pleasure either. How would you like to resolve both these issues with a single shot? Check out StudioLine Photo Classic. Unlike «heavy» and sophisticated image editing applications, StudioLine…
