Mosaico

In the eventuality that you are working with dozens of apps, each set separate for your different projects, then there is a chance that the desktop can sometimes be a mess. Not only does a messy desktop make you lose a lot of time searching for the right tool, but it can also slow down your productivity in the log run.

Mosaico is a dedicated tool that allows you to organize the desktop and keep it clean by creating layouts for each of your activities.

The program comes with a clean and intuitive window that is unlikely to give you any troubles, especially since the main commands – capture, restore, switching between the snapshots and auto-arrange – are located in the upper section.

You can get started by creating a snapshot of the current layout, an operating that entails dragging the windows to a predefined position. Take note that you can create as many layouts as you need, one for each of your activities by capturing the open windows' position and size. Restoring any of the windows can be done with a simple single click.

Since the idea behind the app is to help improve your productivity, it goes without saying that you can customize the layouts to meet the requirements of each activity. You can remove windows that are saved as entries or sort them based on the active windows. You also can choose of the dozens of templates embedded in the program.

When capturing a snapshot, you are also storing the command line arguments of all the opened windows. However, you can edit the arguments and text whenever necessary. Moreover, you can fine tune the actions taken when restoring the layouts so that other snapshots do not get in the way.

Mosaico is a window manager that can come in handy for anyone working with numerous apps or that need to keep several windows open at all times. Simply create presets consisting of sets of app that you bring forth depending on your project and without cluttering your desktop.
