Jeff Van West, author of Tablet PC Quick Reference by Microsoft Press and a regular columnist on the Microsoft Expert Zone website, examines and recommends Actual Window Manager for Tablet PC owners:
'I'm a Tablet PC evangelist. Whenever someone shows interest in my Tablet, the next step is to put it in their hands and give them a quick tour. Several of these encounters have led to purchases of a new Tablet, which I often help set up and configure. When I do, I suggest several pieces of crucial software? Actual Window Manager comes to the rescue with three drop-dead features that make life far more productive on a Tablet PC. Any one of them is worth the price of admission, Getting all three is irresistible.'
Actual Window Manager has three window options to address this weakness and make life on a Tablet PC far more productive. These options are Pin on Top, Roll Up, and Transparency. Each option has its own title bar icon; Actual Window Manager adds these icons to all application and Explorer windows.
Drop-Dead Feature #1: Pin on Top
One tap on the Pin on Top icon puts the source window on top, while the target window is open below it. With the source window stuck securely on top, the user can drag any piece of information from one window to another without continuous window switching.
Drop-Dead Feature #2: Roll Up Plus Pin on Top
If the source window gets in the way, the user can tap on the Roll Up icon to roll the window up like a window shade so that only its title bar remains visible. By pinning and rolling the window up, the user can have an instant peek to the window below without moving the pen around.
Drop-Dead Feature #3: Transparent Input Panel
Also, Tablet owners can make the Input Panel semi-transparent so that it doesn''''t obscure the desktop below.
Many Tablet PC users have already appreciated all advantages that Actual Window Manager gives. Many of them mentioned that Transparent Tablet PC Input Panel has a lot of benefits. Michelangelo Capraro from San Francisco, CA wrote: Actual Tools has made my Tablet PC experience much better by allowing me to change the transparency of my input panel. This seemingly small change really improves usability because now I can see what I've written through the transparent window!
Actual Window Manager can increase Table PC productivity and consequently increase yours!
