Edgy buttons

Touch Screen Buttons

Define buttons and place them anywhere on the screen. Edgy buttons are especially useful for touch screens but can also be used with your mouse.

Actions for your screen buttons can be used with three different keyboard options: no key, Shift key, or Control key. Once you have defined a button by drawing on the picture of the monitor, you then select the desired action for that edge from the list of standard actions and custom actions.

In this screen shot, four buttons have been drawn. The blue color indicates that the top button is selected. The action Screen saver on has been selected from the list. As a result, when the button is pressed, the screen saver will start.

Buttons are automatically titled based on the actions you assign. You can customize the title if you prefer. Buttons remain on top of other windows and dialogs on the screen so that they can be pressed at any time. They can be set to any transparency you want so that you can see through them to whatever is underneath.

Many of Edgy's standard actions give you new capabilities that you will find extremely convenient and useful. These are commands and actions that are not built into Windows, but should have been.

If you want to do something that's not provided by a standard action, you can define a custom action. Custom actions can perform tasks of your choice when the button is pressed, when the button is released, or both.

Some standard actions have additional settings.
