Overview
Dexpot turns your monitor into up to 20 monitor workspaces. Dexpot creates additional workspaces you can quickly switch between. Take, for example, Desktop 1 to listen to your favorite music, surf the web on Desktop 2, use Desktop 3 to handle your daily word processing or switch to Desktop 4 for a game of Solitaire. Different icons, wallpapers, start-ups, and much more can be configured for each desktop.
What's the use of virtual desktops? Overcome desktop clutter, facilitate working with many applications, and organize software into work areas.
Features and Highlights
Full-screen preview
It is an interactive live overview of all desktops. You can move windows to other desktops by simply dragging them with your mouse. Other, more advanced features like copying and closing of windows or tiling and zooming of desktops are available via easy-to-use mouse and keyboard controls as well.
Window catalog
Display all windows of a single desktop as tiles. Once you start dragging a window, the Window catalog automatically switches to Full-screen preview so you can move the window to another desktop.
Desktop Preview
A miniature symbolic version of the Full-screen preview, but just as powerful. Move and copy applications across desktops with drag-and-drop. Desktop Preview automatically hides at the screen edge when you don't use it.
Desktop Manager
Desktop Manager is a small, always visible toolbar for quick desktop switching. It can be positioned anywhere on your desktop and adjusted in size and orientation. Optionally, it shows the icons of all desktops' active applications.
Distribute icons
Get rid of icon chaos on your desktop: each desktop can have its own files and shortcuts. Split up your desktop icons by subject area. Features such as sorting and aligning of icons are maintained.
Different desktop backgrounds
Set wallpapers and background colors of your choice for each desktop. Different backgrounds per monitor are possible as well.
Wide variety of hotkeys
There's a hotkey for pretty much every task in Dexpot, enabling you to handle the tool really fast after just a brief period of familiarization.
Mouse switching
Switch desktops by just moving your mouse cursor to a specific area of the desktop.
Hot Corners
MouseEvents triggers function by moving the mouse cursor into a screen corner. Global mouse wheel shortcuts can be used for desktop switching.
System menus
The app appends easily accessible options to the system menus of all windows. A right-click on the title bar is enough to e.g. move the window to another desktop.
Not just for Linux or Unix users
Taskbar Pager integrates an overview of all desktop directly into the taskbar of Windows. The pager not only lets you switch desktops, but also move or copy (keep CTRL pressed) windows via drag-and-drop.
Made for multiple monitors
All components of the Dex pot are compatible with multiple monitors. The exact behavior of many components can be further adjusted to suit your needs.
Exclude monitors
In case you want windows on individual monitors to remain visible on all desktops and content to be static, you can exclude monitors from desktop switching.
Wallpaper Clocks
Beautify your desktop with a real-time working clock blended into beautiful artwork becoming your desktop background.
