Verschwindibus

Most applications present their set of features through well-designed windows, but working with too many of them on a single monitor can become frustrating. Sure enough, Windows lets you use the Snap feature, which arranges a window based on screen edges, but there are more reliable applications like Verschwindibus with a lot more flexibility.

Intuitive design quickly gets you up and running

Among the last steps of the installer, you get the chance to launch the application to check out its set of features. A pretty compact window shows up, with a dual-pane to display visible and hidden windows, as well as an upper toolbar with necessary controls. When not directly used, it can quietly reside in the tray area.
Both the list of visible and hidden windows show the same type of details, namely the window handle and name. Delivering an item from one section to the other is either done through a double-click operation, or through the dedicated functions. Sadly, you can only manipulate one window at a time.

Various methods to show and hide windows

For a bit more comfort, the application also comes with support for hotkeys. These can be changed, and can make all windows visible or hidden, bring up the application window, or hide the window in focus. Additionally, there’s an option you can use to make Verschwindibus run with Windows so that it’s ready when you reach the desktop.
The application also holds an option to quickly toggle the visibility of desktop icons. As mentioned, it can be sent to the tray area. This icon is equipped with neat menus you can use to toggle the visibility of individual windows or all of them at once, in case you don’t fancy using hotkeys or the main window.

A few last words

To sum it up, Verschwindibus is sure to come in handy if your work involves manipulating multiple windows on a single, small display. There are different methods to toggle visibility, while the startup option saves a lot of effort.
