Actual Window Minimizer belongs to the family of the next generation system enhancement applications. The program sports such unconventional functions as window minimization to the system tray and to the desktop edge, automatic minimization of an inactive window plus minimization of an application to the tray at its launch.
The program seamlessly integrates into Windows and functions totally transparently throughout the Operating System. Therefore, new minimization options are available in virtually any system window. Minimize-to-Tray control is visually represented as another Windows-style title bar button placed next to the Minimize/Restore/Close buttons. Besides, the program allows redefining the action of the standard Minimize button so that it will fold up an application into an icon and place it either in the tray or on the desktop edge. Minimization can be triggered via title bar buttons, contextual menu or hotkeys.
Actual Window Minimizer is a must-have for all users who regularly multitask in several applications at a time. With the standard Windows method, trying to work in a dozen or more programs was far too daunting a job. Today, however, it is fast and simple. Our customers will no longer see window clutter on the taskbar. They won't waste time on hunting for a particular program in that mess. There will be fewer risks of closing right applications by mistake, fewer distracting clicks, less strain and stress. Want to have a better control of your windows? Then, Actual Window Minimizer is the way to go!

| Version 4.5 Changes: |
[!] Windows Monitoring Log tool is added into the Control Center. It allows
detecting newly appeared windows and check, which window rule has been
applied in each particular case. Now you can easily solve any configuration
ambiguities and detect properties of short-living windows (like tool tips,
popup menus etc.). Be careful using this feature: turned on it may slow down
your system!
[+] The ability to hide the mouse pointer, while it is floating over the
specific window, is added.
[+] The "Remove taskbar entry" feature is added.
[+] The ability to copy settings from a selected window rule to others is added.
[+] The new hotkeys are added:
- "Reapply settings" action (Win+F5 by default)
- Configuration Module's launch (Win+C by default)
- "Unhide" submenu that shows the list of currently minimized/hidden
windows (Win+H by default)
[+] Now the hotkey status is displayed in the "Hotkeys" panel of the "Options"
window: when defining a new key combination, you can see, if the defined
combination is already in use with another application or assigned to
another action.
[+] When minimizing to screen, now you can make screen icons
semi-transparent.
[+] Now the balloon tip is shown over the Control Center's tray icon at first
start after the installation.
[*] The internal mechanism of hotkeys processing is significantly improved.
[*] The long-awaited improvement for permanent tray/screen icons is made: now
permanent icons behave like buttons in the Taskbar (i.e. active window is
minimized, inactive window is activated, minimized window is restored).
[*] The options structure is redesigned: new "Triggers" and "Actions" grouping
nodes are added.
[*] The "Hide Configuration Module while using Window Finder" option has been
moved from General to User Interface.
[*] Title buttons appearance in Windows Vista is improved.
[-] The "orphaned title buttons" bug in Windows Vista is fixed:
sometimes title buttons used to get detached from their owner window and
stuck on the desktop.
[-] Compatibility conflicts are solved with:
- Quattro Pro X3 menus
- GrabIt internal windows
- MS Office XP CTFMON.EXE service
- X-NetStat application
[-] Now the "Configure..." item of Control Center tray icon's context menu
is displayed correctly in Windows Vista.
[-] The bug of the "minimize-to-screen" feature is fixed: sometimes screen
icons used to go out of visible area after minimization.
[-] Title buttons now work properly in PowerPoint 2007.
[-] Title buttons' behavior in Outlook 2007 is improved. |
