ModernResizer

This is a new program I have been working on. I think you'll like it. It resizes the start menu.

ModernResizer is a program that allows you to resize and move the windows 8/8.1 start menu.

This is just for the start menu right now. I will be adding more features in further updates. This is similar to  StartMenuModifier but is not based on it in any way. I wrote this from scratch.

 

You can set the width, heght, x & y position of the start menu from this program. I will have v2 out in a few weeks. (Note: Windows 8/8.1 only).

Has it been tested with Windows 10 preview?

Do you want it tested there?

 

Thanks.

What is this ?

 

 

Sorry I didn't catch your question, for some reason my alert wasn't sounded when you replied.

 

That is my taskbar. I use a little program I made called space (link). It is an empty program that just sits in your taskbar so that you can center icons/ move them where you want.

    • I can name 10x that on why not to switch.... It's funny outlook/office are going towards web app wrappers, and then MS is now preaching native apps again.... ugh can we just pick a lane and stay in it
    • Absolutely NOBODY has suggested such a conclusion. I am affirming the sober reality check that AV2's overall market adoption will take longer than AV1's adoption rate -- which, by the way, is the whole point of the article! While PCI-SIG is productive (on paper), other WGs have created all sorts of confusing progress plans that consumers have tuned-out of their improvements... HTML/W3C, USB, HDMI, BT, WIFI (ieee802.11) as a few other groups where spec naming conventions, split progress paths, overlapping ambitions... I'm not critiquing the AV specs group; I'm simply affirming that adoption for AV2 faces headwinds beyond the macroeconomics of it all.
