New Features / Improvements

  • Added Swedish translation (#261)

Bug Fixes

  • Fixed a critical issue from v5.17.0 (released a week ago) that occurred due to new build configuration that added a week ago...
    The issue was that the app was simply unstable, and used to hang, crash, and freeze much more frequently. The solution was just to revert most of the problematic build configurations. I hope that the app will run stable this time as it was before 5.17.0

Piracy Statement

[!!!] Avoid WindowTop cracked version or risk this project's future [!!!] #254

New Features / Improvements

  • [PiP + Mouse Interact Mode] Implemented feature to show preview also of the mouse pointer (#249)
shrink_interact_readmode.mp4

This feature will help a lot when you want to control the PiP window while it is tiny because you see what you are doing, thanks to the advanced preview that also shows the mouse pointer.

You can enable/disable this feature via the INTERACT options under the toolbar:
image

The option is "Enable read mode," and when checked, you will get this behavior.

By default, the option is enabled. You can disable/enable this option via PiP settings:
image

  • Added option to configure PiP auto move in quick settings/wizard
  • Implemented saving more specific PiP configurations

Bug Fixes

  • Fixed issue that sometimes the app freezes when using hotkeys
  • Fixed issue that sometimes HotKeys are not working for shrunk/PiP windows (#247)
  • Fixed old regression bug that the fatal exception handler did not work
  • (v5.16.1 - Hotfix) Fixed regression with PiP INTERACT mode that for some windows like the file explorer, word the mouse events failed to pass to the window (controlling such window via PiP mode was broke).
  • (v5.16.2 - Hotfixes) Fixed multiple bugs and improved stability

Changes

  • Rename the feature "Shrink" to "PiP"

New Features / Improvements

Implemented feature to allow Shrinking / PiP + interacting with any window without hiding the window (#243)

When the new option "Show original window" is checked, the original window will be visible in addition to the small live-preview

image

In quick settings, added this configuration:

pip_show_org_win_settings

In addition, you can even interact with the window as usual while it is visible, and when you click on the small preview, this time it will activate the original window instead of removing the small preview (This is the intended behavior when the window is not hidden)

pip_show_org_win2

Bug Fixes

  • [Elevated Window Request] Fixed an issue that when saving window configuration for an admin window did not really save it in case of doing it after WindowTop requested elevated/admin access (to modify the window)
  • Fixed: [Shrink] Live preview stop working when the user minimize the hidden window (#242)

New Features / Improvements

Implemented feature to ask the user to get admin privileges access when requesting to control admin window (#241)

Toolbar for admin-level window:

image

When the user enables one of the modes (top-most, shrink, etc), the user will be asked by the OS to give WindowTop elevated permissions.
Once the user accepts it, WindowTop will perform the requested operation (such as set-top) as usual (the app will not restart itself to do it!)

When the user enables one of these modes via hotkey, the program will show the following dialog before passing the elevated request to the OS:
image

Once the user clicks yes, the regular flow will happen (OS will ask the user to give elevated permissions)

Bug Fixes

  • [Anchors] Fixed an issue that the anchor icon of an elevated window was blank (Failed to generate an icon for such anchor)
  • (v5.14.1 - hotfix) Fixed an issue that the second elevated WindowTop process did not load the activation state

Changes

  • [Always On Top] The default settings ShowToggledHotKeyNotification changed from true to false. By default, you will not see a green notification when enabling this mode via hotkey
  • [Anchors] Now the app will show the Anchors tips wizard 4 seconds after the "Getting started wizard" closed
