4t Tray Minimizer – закрепление окон, сворачивание в заголовок и скрытие в системном трее

Если вы предпочитаете работать со множеством одновременно открытых окон, то утилита 4t Tray Minimizer может оказаться совсем не лишней. Она позволяет сворачивать открытые окна в тонкие заголовки, скрывать, минимизировать в системный трей и делать полупрозрачными. Благодаря таким возможностям управлять открытыми программами, переключаться между ними, не теряя контроль, становится гораздо удобнее.

4t Tray Minimizer добавляет к окну программы набор дополнительных кнопок, с помощью которых появляются новые возможности по управлению. Одним кликом можно свернуть окно программы в тонкую полоску, в которой будет отображаться только заголовок. Можно свернуть окно в системный трей, скрыв его с панели задач, можно при открытии окна любой программы все время скрывать ее значок даже из системного трея.

4t Tray Minimizer добавляет к окну любой программы такую удобную функцию, как закрепление поверх остальных открытых окон.

Ну и, конечно же, утилита умеет делать любое открытое окно полупрозрачным. Толку от этой полупрозрачности никакого, но красиво. В настройках можно определить группировку окон одного приложения в один значок в трее, указать горячие клавиши, которые можно использовать так же, как и дополнительные кнопки.

Утилита работает в Wondows XP, Windows Vista и Windows 7, снабжая окна программ новыми, удобными функциями. Есть бесплатная версия, и платная, обладающая еще большими, чем я описал, возможностями.
