This post does not pretend to be a full-fledged article and is not advertising, but only a small lifehack, which can simplify the life of layout makers a little.
Probably every normal web-maker asked himself a question: “How convenient is it to check the layout with a ready-made layout?”, Well, or something like that. Today I also asked this question.
The first thought that came to mind is “It would be nice to quickly change the transparency of windows”. As far as I know, in Windows 7 there is no such function. A little googling I finally convinced. But the search did not stop there. Later, I came across a wonderful program called: See Through Windows . With this small program, you can change the transparency of windows using a predetermined combination of hot keys. What, in fact, I was looking for.
The program interface is as follows: ')
From the screenshot it is not difficult to guess what the program can do:
Set the hot key combination to change the transparency of the window.
Set the transparency level. You can also see it here if you activate the checkbox with the Preview transparency value.
If you activate checkboxes under the Move window, using the shortcuts: Ctrl + Win + Up / Down and Ctrl + Win + Left / Right you can minimize / maximize the active window and move the window to another monitor, respectively.
Here, perhaps all that I wanted to share. I hope this utility will seem useful not only to me;)
Download See Through Windowshere. There are versions for 32 and 64 bit OS.
