  IMPORTANT NOTICE

BetterDesktopTool is a handy and reliable utility designed to assist you in creating non-overlapping layouts from your multiple applications' windows.

This tool can prove particularly useful if you often need to work with several windows at the same time, requiring information from various sources simultaneously.

Normally, you would have to switch back and forth between all these applications, wasting time and possibly even losing bits of information in the process.

With BetterDesktopTool, you can set various keyboard shortcuts, mouse movements and hot corner options, enabling you to 'Show all Windows', 'Show Foreground App Window' or 'Show Desktop' in a variety of ways, saving you a lot of time. You can also create similar hotkeys to 'Show Non-Minimized' as well as 'Minimized Windows'.

BetterDesktopTool allows you to arrange the windows in a regular grid, but you also have the possibility of only showing the top-level windows.

Moreover, with this program you can create and show virtual desktops, displaying them individually or in overview through various mouse or keyboard shortcuts. You can customize the count and alignment of your desktops, so you can view for instance 2 rows and 5 columns of screens at the same time.

This comprehensive utility lets you move from one desktop to another with hotkeys, enabling you for example to separate your work-related activities from movies, books or social media websites, without needing to close either of them nor having them interfere with each other.

BetterDesktopTool runs minimized in the system tray, allowing you to access it whenever you need and adjust any settings or preferences. By right-clicking its icon, you can quickly enable virtual-desktops, saving you time and increasing your performance.

To summarize, BetterDesktopTool is an interesting and efficient piece of software that enables you to create a customized layout of all your applications' windows, as well as open and control several virtual-desktops at the same time.
