@charlestek: Regarding this issue, I'm of the opinion that if an app could have been written to do this, it would have been a long time ago. Hell, I would have written it myself if there was a way to get that hotkey data.The answer is "Hotkey Commander" (this is not a freeware).-skwire (May 13, 2015, 05:56 AM)

I have just released a new version of TaskLayout. Please check my new thread.I will include an option(will name it like "sequential app startup") in one of the next releases of TL.-cshnik (December 01, 2014, 01:22 PM)
Great! Looking forward to trying it.-dr_andus (December 01, 2014, 05:17 PM)
Welcome to the boards! You can announce your products/get your own threads in the Announce Your Software/Service/Product section, which will give you more lift than posting deep in a thread like this. And it will establish you as the developer for future referenceThank you for the welcome! Your advice will help me a lot, thanks!-wraith808 (December 02, 2014, 08:44 AM)
What is your relationship to TaskLayout? It's usual on this forum to state if you have a relationship to the software you're discussing.I'm the developer of this tool.-wraith808 (December 01, 2014, 05:33 PM)
Does TaskLayout work with multiple (in my case 3) monitors?I think I have checked TL on multi-monitor workstation, but not sure. Technically, I don't see any troubles on this but anyway you need to try it yourself
Does it open the apps all at the same time or in some sort of a delayed sequence?Currently, all applications are opening at the same time.
I have a lot of resource-hungry apps that manually take me 5 to 10 min to open at the start of the day, and if I would try to open them all at the same time or very quickly one after the other, it would freeze and probably crash my PC. Would TL work in this scenario?
Otherwise this app would be very useful to me, but only if I could somehow ensure that a new app doesn't launch until the previous one has properly launched.
I wonder if WinSize2 might do the same. Although it may take more work to set up your desktop.The main point of TaskLayout(TL) is to save a set of running apps(and/or opened shell windows) with corresponding positions on the screen to file on disk. When TL restores desktop layout from this file it searches for specified windows/apps running on the desktop. If required application is not found TL will start it using the same command line as it was originally specified. The next step is to restore windows positions on the screen respecting their original size, state and Z-order.-MilesAhead (November 30, 2014, 09:47 AM)
But yes, it does feel like a beta still. I ran into a number of bugs on a Win7, 64-bit system (although the developer does warn about them). E.g. I couldn't detach Notepad2-mod, once attached. Also, when moved between different monitors (with different resolutions and sizes), the docked windows can get a bit messed up, so need manual rearranging.How about the latest version of TaskSpace? I really need your opinion...
I do hope this app will mature soon.-dr_andus (February 01, 2014, 06:18 AM)
