4. My proudest idea is also the visually smallest one. The super gadget replaces all of the resize, maximise, minimise, move to front/back buttons on windows. The idea is that the different click you can do on it will perform all of the same functions, i.e:
left click + drag = move window
right click + drag = resize window
single left click = move to front
single right click = move to back
left double click = maximise
right double click = minimise
six in one, All from one icon!
The only thing you would have to get used to is resizeing windows from the top right not the bottom right.
I have a couple suggestions...
One, if you stick with the "super gadget" concept, it should appear at the four corners of the window. I also agree that the "super gadget" should be optional. Or there should be a comprehenisve 'tutorial' on its use... BTW, have you thought of renaming it the 'geek' gadget??? :-D
Second, utilize more mouse buttons. I know the Amiga originally supported 'only' two, but there's no reason to abide by this limit anymore. For example, instead of using single left/right click to place a window in the foreground/background. Why not 'middle' mouse click for both functions. That way you could preserve the ability of dragging a background window without forcing it to the front.
