In my opinion, this feature is actually more useful with the arrival of Lion, now that the dock exposé has vanished.
Useful if you have a great number of windows open and it might get lost amongst the rabble. The name of this feature almost gives it away, but if you’re not clear already then let me explain: the Keep Afloat option simply allows you to position a window on top of all others that are open, so you can drag it around and it will always be at the front of whatever it is you’re doing.
It adds always-on-top, transparency, Spaces window management and more.Īdding several features to most open windows, it can be useful for both productivity and the general tidiness of your machine so you can find your way around more easily and keep windows that can so easily become a complete mess, in some sort of order. It’s a small extender that adds both useful window management commands and a little eye candy to most Mac applications. Afloat, by developers at Infinite Labs, is a useful plugin application that allows users to customize the way they interact with the windows they have open on their Mac OS desktops.
