TweakWindow
-
Version
1.5
Even though TweakWindow has many analogs currently
available for download on the Internet, no other
window enhancement utility comes close to TweakWindow
in terms of usability and number of features offered.
In addition to standard features, like hiding a window
or making it topmost or transparent, TweakWindow
offers unique capabilities, like an option to change a
window's icon or title so that no one can just come
over and see what program you are running. One-click
window minimization to the system tray is a great
option for software applications that are
automatically launched upon startup (like MS Outlook)
but aren't currently used. To maximize a window,
simply click the application icon in the system tray.
Another popular option not available in many window
enhancement tools is a rollup feature that rolls the
window up or down, leaving visible only its titlebar.
Window ghosting is a feature that makes a window
topmost and semi-transparent (users can adjust the
transparency level themselves). All clicks will go
through that window to the one located beneath, but
the ghost window can still be closed, minimized,
maximized and resized. Only a ghost window's title bar
reacts to mouse clicks. This is a great feature when
you are running an application that you don't want
others to see, but don't like hiding it entirely and
need to be able access it immediately, when necessary.
All these window manipulations can be done easily in
one of three ways. First, you can use the buttons that
the program adds to windows (this option can be turned
on or off). Second, you can manipulate the windows
through the window system menu. Finally, you can
assign your own hotkeys that will trigger an action by
simply pressing a combination of keys. The program is
extremely easy to download, set up and use. It
requires absolutely no special skills or knowledge.
And since TweakWindow is 100% FREE to download and
try, you can start using it right now!
