Wishlist for ModernMix

I understand that Microsoft was trying to push Windows into the touch/modern age without sacrificing backwards compatibility, but running Metro apps full-screen from the Start screen and having legacy programs run in the Desktop "app" is a jarring bifurcation of the UI.

ModernMix goes a long way toward fixing that, but I'd like to see these additions to MM: First, the ability to run legacy programs full-screen (without borders) like a Metro app and second, Win-Tab should cycle between all programs/apps (I know Alt-Tab does, but I like using the Win key).

I like ModernMix so far (I paid for it), and I'm looking forward to future improvements.

Keep up the good work, Stardock!

i was just about to ask about this :P

I would really like the ability to run legacy apps in the metro Interface.., switching back and forth really is jarring XD

this times a million.

If you could make it so that you could run any legacy program as a metro app this progam would be amazing. the hybrid form factor would be complete!

Prioritisation of ModernUI app windows so they don't lose focus when interacting with another app. A toggle would be preferable because there's only the XBox video app that really causes issues, I like to watch something on my second screen while web surfing on the primary.
