TaskSwitchXP provides the same functionality as the existing application switching mechanism in Windows XP/2003 today. When the hotkey combination Alt + Tab (or Alt + Shift + Tab) is pressed, TaskSwitchXP generates the list of open windows in which the end user is working. This list of open windows is presented as a group of icons, with one outlined by a selection rectangle. As the end user continues to hold the Alt key and presses the Tab key, the selection rectangle moves to the next (previous) icon. The selected icon represents the application that Windows will bring to the foreground once the Alt key is released. In addition to displaying an icon list, however, TaskSwitchXP show also a thumbnail preview of the window that will be switched to.
What's new in Beta 4:
- TaskSwitchXP now restores tray icons after Explorer crashes.
- Middle-click on blank area marks item as multiple selected.
- Some bugs with tray icon actions were fixed.
- Some bugs with window enumeration were fixed.
- Memory leak with rounded selection style was fixed.
- Some stability and performance fixes.
