Dragging drawers off the edge of workbench
« on: July 03, 2006, 01:39:48 PM »
As the title suggests.  

A while back someone mentioned a utility on Aminet which allowed drawers to be dragged off the edge of the visible workbench (as is possible on a MS windows screen) - thus allowing you to move drawers out of the way more completely.

Anyone know what it's called?

Have done a few keyword searches, but eliciting nothing thus far.

Thanks

You actually like dragging windows off screen?

Like is perhaps the wrong term.  Find useful?  Yes the extra space is useful.

The ultimate worst was the Windows NT bug that caused Task Manager to gradually work its way to the top of the screen after opening a few times and move off the top, making it impossible for you to access the gadgets and menu.

That was a long time ago.

Looks like Powerwondows will take quite a bit of cofiguring anyway, so it remains a curious toy for now at least, until I can spare it the time.
