SoftArts Deskey: Overview
Microsoft Windows 95 includes many new and useful features for managing your desktop and windows, but leaves many things to be desired. Deskey was written to fill in these gaps and greatly extend your control over the behavior and organization of you
r desktop.
SoftArts Deskey's powerful features include:
Window placements.
Make "forgetful" programs (such as Notepad and WordPad) remember their window positions and sizes. Make Explorer stop "forgetting" the positions and view settings of your favorite folders. Set a default size and position for all program windows, and f
or all Explorer folders. Instantly size and position a window identically to another one.
Hide command.
Deskey adds a Hide command to the system menu of all program windows, so you can run programs in the background without having them clutter your desktop or occupy precious space on the taskbar.
Hidden window switcher.
Deskey provides a hidden window switcher that works just like the standard ALT+TAB task switcher, except that it allows you to switch to hidden windows instead of visible ones.
Hide or minimize all windows.
Deskey lets you instantly hide all windows using the Hide All Windows command, similar to Explorer's Minimize All Windows command. Deskey also provides an enhanced version of the Minimize All Windows command.
Keep on Top option.
Deskey adds a Keep on Top option to the system menu of all program windows, so you can make sure that important windows stay in front of (and are thus never obscured by) other windows.
Keyboard shortcuts.
Deskey provides keyboard shortcuts so you can access Deskey's features from within any program.
In short, SoftArts Deskey is the ultimate power user's window manager!
