In depth

A closer look at SendToBack

Having to work with a lot of windows on your desktop is a pain, especially when there’s no second monitor to turn no. Accidental clicking can easily mess up work, but window management can be tackled with the right set of applications. For instance, SendToBack helps you adjust the layer level of an active window at the press of a button.

Lightweight and easy to use

Since it skips you the whole effort of going through a setup process, the application is good to go from the moment you finish downloading it. As such, it can easily be carried around on a thumb drive to use on other computers besides your own, without having to worry that the health status of the target PC gets affected, because registry entries remain intact during the process.The application minimizes to the tray area right after it’s launched, without notifying you of this action. It’s a good idea to bring up the configuration panel though, so you can at least get a look at the controls used to handle window position on the desktop.

Configure mouse and keyboard controls

You’re free to use any type of window in the process, but it’s best to work with those which are not in fullscreen mode. Although there’s no a great variety in the set of default options, the ones at your disposal provide enough variety to efficiently manage windows with little effort.By default, all hotkey commands are disabled by default so you don’t accidentally trigger any functions. These allow you to bring to front, send to back, or force to stay on top of everything else. You’re free to change default key values. Apart from keyboard interaction, either the right or middle mouse buttons can be set to send the selected window to the back layer.

On an ending note

In conclusion, window management is a tough operation, not in the sense that you need to frequently deal with it, but it takes time to efficiently organize your workspace. SendToBack comes as a powerful enhancement even though it’s only fitted with a few controls.
