WindowTop
Optimize your productivity by making windows Always-On-Top. By switching windows super fast using Anchors. By using & watching multiple windows at the same time using Picture-In-Picture (PiP) mode and enabling night mode (dark-mode) for any window.
With PiP, you can easily change the window to an interactive thumbnail, control it with the mouse and keyboard, and crop it.
Interact mode lets you see a bigger preview with your mouse cursor above the window. So you don’t have to make the PiP bigger to see where you click or read.
PiP also allows hiding the original window (*Default)
Or you can configure it so as not to hide the original window. You can configure the default behavior and also toggle it via the toolbar.
You can drag the PiP view when the mouse is not above some text. The function treats it as a text-selection operation when it is above text.
PiP also includes an auto-move function that automatically moves the PiP view away from any text or image on the screen.
The PiP feature also comes with a crop function that allows you to activate the crop directly from the native window. This includes everything else that comes with PiP, such as mouse interaction, etc.
You can modify the crop selection directly from the native window (if “Show original window” is enabled) and instantly see the result on the PiP view.
PiP also allows hiding the original window (*Default)
Easily adjust window transparency and even enable click-throws, and there is an additional option to temporarily turn off transparency when the mouse is above the window. These options can be enabled via hotkeys.
Use case example of transparency with click-through enabled.
