Move Windows:
The foreground window will be the window which moves
WIN+ALT+Numpad
WIN+ALT+NumberKeys
WIN+ALT+LEFT or RIGHT

Move Window & Follow:
The foreground window will be the window which moves
WIN+CTRL+ALT+Numpad
WIN+CTRL+ALT+NumberKeys

What is the difference between pin app and pin window?
An easy way to imagine this is if you use pin window on a chrome browser window, only that window will be visible on all desktops. Any other chrome windows would stay on a single desktop. If you were to pin application on a chrome window then all chrome windows would show up on all desktops. This includes new chrome windows.

System Tray Icon

  • Choose from several sets of icons
  • The icons indicate which desktop you are viewing
  • Left-Click the system tray icon to display or hide DesktopView.
  • Right-Click the system tray icon to bring up the main menu.

Make your own icons and attach them to an issue then I will add them to the program.
