Actual Window Manager can help you access additional features of Windows 8 in the form of additional title buttons. Actual Window Manager contains many additional title buttons for improving window management. Among them, you can find: minimize to the system tray, make transparent, copy, paste, resize, roll up, two buttons for multi-monitor management – maximize to desktop and move to monitor; and many others features, which make your work more convenient. Use of these buttons is very simple: just left-click to desired button to activate the required feature. However, several buttons have a second work mode. For example, if you right-click on the 'Move to Monitor' title button, the special selector is opened instead simple moving of a window to the next monitor.
