2 Feature request

from Stardock Forums

First, Great tool!

 

Here my requests.

 

Is it possible to add the the functionality to run "Live Tiles" (not the started app!!!!!!) in a Window Mode on Desktop to replace the old Gadgets?This would be fantastic benefit over the old ugly HTML/JS Gadgets (You can use .Net and a better API).

 

And the second request is ,that it would be nice to have a second shortcut (like pressing SHIFT+clicking on tile) to start an app in windowed Mode when I'm on the startscreen.

 

thanks.

Stardock clearly have the technology to show the entire Start screen on the desktop, since that's how Start8 works if you set it to pop up a smaller version of the Win8 Start screen when clicking the Start button. Capturing an individual tile for display might be harder.... But yes, it would be nice.

We'd also have to have the ability to make a ModernUI window "stay on top" of other windows. It would be good to add this ability to ModernMix.

I don't want to show the startscreen on Desktop. I want to show 3 or 4 useful tiles, each in a small Window.
