Jigsaw Puzzle

Jigsaw Puzzle is a lightweight Yahoo! widget built specifically for helping you play a simple jigsaw puzzle game right from the comfort of your desktop. You need to have Yahoo! Widget Engine installed on the target computer in order to make use of the program’s capabilities.

The widget sports a clean, minimalist, and simplistic interface that integrates only a few configuration settings. You are allowed to reconstruct an image with the aid of multiple puzzle pieces.

You can select the desired piece and press on the target location in the puzzle in order to fix it. Double-clicking on a piece from the puzzle helps you automatically remove it.

Other options offered by the Yahoo! environment give you the possibility to prevent the windows from being dragged, set the opacity level, and ignore mouse events.

You can also make the gadget stay on top of other applications, and this proves to pretty useful, especially when dealing with multiple applications at the same time. What’s more, you can hide or close the widget, and move it to any area of the screen using drag-and-drop actions.

It does not eat up a lot of CPU and memory resources so the overall performance of the computer is not affected. On the downside, the tool offers poor support for puzzle customization options. You cannot import pictures from your computer and set the number of pieces, just to name a few examples.
