Hydravision™ - Expand your horizons

features

Organize and create multiple desktops with MultiDesk
Multi-task with MultiDesk - Create, name, organize, and arrange up to nine active multi-monitor desktop combinations and cycle between them with a mouse click (e.g., web browser set to open on one display while your word processor application is open on the second display). Then move applications and documents between desktops or set selected items to appear on all desktops.


Switch between desktop with a mouse click or "Hot Key"
Assign Hot Key shortcuts for the functions you use most often, including: moving active applications or windows to specific monitors; accessing Hydravision™ controls on the fly; opening applications with a single keystroke; and zooming your view of the desktop.


Vary your settings from one application to the next
Vary your settings from one application to the next by specifying "Hot Key" shortcuts in the "Hot Keys" dialog, or choose global settings that determine the behavior of windows and dialog boxes for all applications in your multi-monitor environment.

Customize features of Hydravision™ to an application

• Set independent resolutions and refresh rates on each monitor. You can unite monitors of different size, or flat panels and CRTs, into one desktop. *
• Open multiple documents in an application on each monitor by maximizing that application across multiple monitors, and maximizing child windows to single monitors.
• Set your applications to open in your preferred desktop position Application Position Memory remembers the size and position of your applications when you close them and open them at the same location when you start them again.

*Please note: independent resolution is only possible on Win9X, WinME, WinXP and not Win2K and WinNT.


Transparent windows and menus
When you select a window and drag to a new location, the window will become translucent. This allows you to see items located behind the window being dragged. Once the mouse button is released (dragging operation stopped) the window becomes opaque.


"Always-on-Top"
This feature allows you to select whether an application window will always remain on top even if another application window is opened or moved over this previous window. Default mode is turned off for Always-on-Top feature. Right clicking on the applications title bar will display a new menu feature for Always-on-Top.


Multi-Desk Properties
Now you have an option to easily access different desktops. In the bottom right-hand corner on the tray, just click on the Multi-Desk icon and choose which desktop you'd like to have displayed (from up to 9 different to choose from).


Cycle through desktops view
In multi-desktop mode, you can now use the mouse wheel to cycle through the different desktops configured on the system.


Move-to-monitor feature
"Move-to-monitor" feature allows you to select to which monitor you'd like to move the application. With a simple right click on the application title bar, a drop down menu appears with the options to "Move to monitor 1" or Move to monitor 2".


Internet Explorer extension
Provides a quick method to take advantage of dual displays when surfing the web. When using Internet Explorer right click over a hotlink and then select in which display you want your client window to open. After that, just double click over hotlinks (right mouse button) and all future Internet client windows will open automatically on the display you selected.
