This works well for some people but others have asked for a way to show all windows in the taskbar. Now you can control this behavior, here’s how:

This feature is a work in progress. There are some exciting new capabilities with the Windows 7 “SuperBar” that I will take advantage of over the next few weeks to provide much smarter taskbar grouping and integration.

WindowTabs make this easier by allowing me to drag and drop maximized windows between monitors instead of having to restore, move, maximize. It’s a little thing but it makes for a more fluid window management experience.

The new Auto Hide feature streamlines WindowTabs by hiding tabs on inactive and maximized windows. The tabs are shown when you:

  • move your mouse over a tab area
  • move your mouse to the top of the screen (for maximized windows)
  • drag a window tab
  • switch windows in a tabbed group
