It looks like there will be some sort of addon or professional version that allows for advanced customizations and skins, so I am hopeful that the basic functionality will remain free post-alpha.įences runs on all of Windows XP, Windows Vista, and Windows 7. Freeware?: free for personal use, although as mentioned this alpha version will expire in Aug 2009.(I hope they fix this bug sooner rather than later). This sort of dedication is exactly why you should immediately click the “buy me a beer” icon in this site’s sidebar and donate money to Freewaregenius. At first this issue seemed like a deal breaker, but once I had created my requisite 5 areas that I needed, the program worked fine provided that I did not add more areas. Bugs: testing on Windows XP SP3, I found, unfortunately, that every time I would add a new “area” my system would create it for me and then would crash (this also happened when I first installed since the first thing the program does is create a bunch of areas).Context menu integration: all of this software’s functions are accessible throught the right click menu, which is nice.Just think, you could set it so that all clutter is instantly hidden except for core set of icons that you always want to see. If you need to you can set exceptions for some icons so that they will always be visible even as the others are hidden (which can be done straight from the context menu). Quick-hide icons: double click on an empty area of your desktop and all icons (and floating areas) will disappear doing it again afterwards will make them reappear.You do not need to place all of your desktop icons inside areas. You can add more icons than can fit the visible area, whereby a navigation bar will appear to help you scroll down (see image to the right). Icons magnetically float to the top until they encounter other icons, but other than that you can arrange them at will. Icons: to add icons to an area simply drag and drop.Behavior: the floating areas (or “areas” as I will call them from this point onward) can be moved, resized, and renamed at will (which includes all the icons within them, of course).
