Have you ordered Windows 7 yet? I’ve been using it on my main machines now for ten months and I’d never go back to Vista. One of the best improvements in Windows 7 is the taskbar, which allows you to access open applications and documents quickly.
7stacks is a great addon for Windows 7 that adds even more functionality to the Windows 7 Taskbar and adds the ability to add ‘stacks’ of icons to the Windows 7 Taskbar, allowing you to further tidy up the clutter on your machine. One neat way to use 7Stacks is to browse the files in a folder quickly. With 7stacks, just create a stack to that document’s folder, and open that document in a couple of clicks.
Key Features:
- In 7 and Vista, 7stacks uses Aero, making the stacks look like part of Windows itself.
- Browse subfolders within a stack, just like in OS X Snow Leopard.
- 3 different styles of stacks: Normal, Grid, and Menu
- Normal displays a stack of icons vertically, with a text description next to it.
- Grid displays a “squarish” grid of icons only; useful when displaying a large number of items like document folders.
- Menu displays a cascading menu of items, with a very small icon and a name next to it. Hover over subfolders to browse inside those folders.
- In Windows 7, create a new stack by right-clicking on any stack and selecting “Create New Stack” from the JumpList entry.In Menu mode, 7stacks doesn’t even need to be in a toolbar. You can use it right from your desktop, or any other folder.
- Pin up to 10 different stacks on the Windows 7 taskbar
