Recently, on MacRadar had several program reviews designed for efficient window management. One of them is supported in its work on cooperation with mouseThe other relies on the use of hotkeys and a special menu. The program, which will be discussed today, relies on the use of shortcuts, coupled with the arrow keys.
Interaction with Snaprocket tied to use a combination Control + Option (⌃⌥), What suggests itself to us the program icon. The activation of this shortcut will highlight the current window and display the application icon, the name and title of the active window. To move to the next screen need only touch the "arrow" on the keyboard. Someone may say that it is the same as the system Command + Tab and are right. Snaprocket duplicates the standard features of Mac OS, but at the same time making them more visible and easy to use. Additional opportunities to work with windows will be apparent from the screenshots posted hereinafter.
To demonstrate the windows need only press the Space
Manipulate windows, you can use the number keys
Concept is simple, move on to some important features of the program. Snaprocket trained to work with non-standard windows. only one flaw in the interaction with the Skitch application was discovered a couple of days of use. In this case, the working area of the program for taking screenshots Snaprocket was illuminated as five windows from different parts of the interface. The developers encourage users divided by such inconsistencies and to send screenshots to tech support addressThan I took.
Another feature is a catastrophically stupid Snaprocket installation procedure, and just a great tutorial reveals the features of the program.
First, about the installation. The program itself is packed to the archive zip, unpack that file in front of me appeared, koi any sane person will throw in the folder "Programs". In fact Snaprocket panel is "System Preferences" and set by double-clicking. Honestly, it really so difficult to make a dmg image to the picture «double click». And so, we had to climb in the "program" and delete the installer.
Now for the tutorial. The first launch Snaprocket offer opportunities to get acquainted with tools intuitively. The user will be offered an artificially created by the window, where, under the guidance of an improvised the AI, you can get acquainted with the most commonly used methods. I think every developer should take into account as an interesting example. Very often, when getting acquainted with the software at first did not understand all the usefulness of the application, and the time to read manuals just yet. Here are all on the surface, a few clicks and the essence of the program is clear.
Let us turn to Snaprocket settings. For owners of a lot of screen configurations of the desktop will be useful setting «Enable screen wrap», so Snaprocket powers will be extended beyond the primary monitor. When working with a large screen diagonal can be a very convenient switch sorting the vertical and horizontal axis. There is an option to modify the illumination color and taste, of course, any shortcuts applications can be changed at convenient user.
Snaprocket another interesting program extends the capabilities of a standard interface Mac OS. What this utility gives to his colleagues in the line of what is superior. Snaprocket is aimed primarily at professional application with a large number of windows and applications. Usually, the user will have enough Expose functions.
