An in depth look...

  • Easy To Use 'Tabbed Shelf' Interface
    Easy to use graphical tabbed display gets you up and running without delay. Rather than dealing with a random layout of icons spread all over your desktop, organize frequently used applications and files into their own groups and categories. The possibilities are endless - You can even display the entire desktop on a single page of it's own, among other pages holding frequently accessed files and directories, work projects, WorkShelf Modules, Internal Commands, and more!

  • Complete Desktop And Taskbar Replacement
    WorkShelf features built-in task management to control running applications. Gain access to your running apps via the handy Taskbar tab. Best of all, you can choose the position of WorkShelf itself: attach it to to the top or bottom of your screen or leave it "floating"! When the shelf is unneeded simply hide it from view or collapse it down to a simple tab display.

  • Advanced Module Support
    WorkShelf features useful "Modules" such as a Talking Digital/Analog Clock that synchronizes your time with time servers on the internet, a Recycler, a CPU Meter, an Email Checker, a Weather Module, a Net and RAM Meters, a 'fortune cookie' reader and more forthcoming... Modules can be displayed 'in-shelf' among other objects, inside NeXuS docks, in the NextSTART Startbar or as free-form/free floating objects on your desktop!

  • Flexible Configuration with Theme Support
    Not happy with the default WorkShelf look and feel? Would you prefer a configuration that better matched your own tastes? Even a semi-transparent shelf? No problem...You can configure how the tabs and objects look and behave! Choose how icons and tabs are displayed, how item selection is made, and more! You can choose the font, the size, the colors (even use gradients and bitmaps!), 3D effects, custom icons and, still, much more! In fact, thanks to the Theme support of the WorkShelf Preferences Manager you will be able to import and export themes based on the above options. Share them with your friends or upload them to popular archive sites!

  • Useful Object-based Drag And Drop
    Object based interface offers "drag and drop" capabilities that make it simple to manage your applications, files, printers, etc... Use Drag and Drop to move/copy/re-arrange objects from one location to another, to both inside and outside of WorkShelf. Drop documents onto WorkShelf Application Objects and have them automatically loaded. You can even change the icons used by WorkShelf Objects simply by dragging and dropping your favorite .ICO or .PNG files onto the chosen object.

  • Full Multi-Monitor Support
    Place the shelf on the monitor of your preference or even make it span all your available monitors!

  • Quality And Performance Tested
    From it's earliest releases, WorkShelf has undergone extensive testing by hundreds and hundreds of dedicated users. This testing continues as part of our ongoing efforts to provide top quality software to our customers.
