Post New Requests Here / IDEA: Windows desktop productivity tool
« on: April 13, 2014, 05:53 PM »
Hello there.
My name is Stefanos i'm a designer and i work with way too many files. I always use the desktop as the main place to temporary put my files cause it's the easiest to do and it's always at the same place.After done working with my project i clean my desktop and organize my files inside the appropriate folders.
All this is too much and i always find myself with a hell of a desktop.
I'm am trying to find a way that the desktop of windows represents a user specified folder of any of my disks and with an tray icon that i can change this folder with just a click to anything i want including the "official" /Desktop.
But i want this to be clean and fast. (ex. not copying pasting files as it uses to much resources)
1st way. The one way i think is someone with the technical skills to make a tool that just fulls windows to show any specified desktop (which as i understand is a full screen explorer window) folder.
2nd way. And the second way (a bit messier ) is to lock a full screen explorer window on the bottom of the Z order on windows
A mock up that i made (cause images are better than letters)
I found those forums searching for the solution to my problem and of what i saw you might be the ones that know how to do this thing.
thank you all for your time
I posted this probably on the wrong forum so i moved it here
