Icon Organizing anyone?

sneak preview from the lab...

Monday, July 9, 2007 by Dr W - Fences Support | Discussion: OS Customization

Sneak preview of a potential new technology for the desktop that's brewing - Icon Organizing. Create areas on the desktop that apply a customizable graphic effect to the background, resize/move the areas and have the icons go with them, icons can auto-arrange independently within the areas... can choose a specific area for new icons to go to automatically, fold up areas, show a 'details' explorer view of a subfolder as a desktop area...etc etc.



What do you think!

ObjectDock Plus is going to get an update as well, to snap in with Fences.

Not really sure what "snap in" means but it sure sounds cool.

Can't wait to see the finished product, I'm glad it will be compatible with XP too.

hehe nice zubaz. fwiw v1.0 won't include any kind of skinning, it's aim was designed around simplcity & usability with simple/clean good looks ; you can tint the areas a uniform different color & change their uniform opacity, but no per-group settings and no skinning/changing it from "shaded areas" to something more fancy/graphical. look for that in the 2.0

wrapped up on other projects right now, you may have heard some press about that whole Dell Dock thingamabobber and that Impulse whatsitcalled... but have plans to start making finishing-progress again in a reasonably short order
