Le Dimmer

2013-06-05T03:13:00.002-07:00

Le Dimmer

Le Dimmer automatically dims everything on your desktop apart from the active window. It can also prove to be very useful if you have multiple windows opened and you want to focus only on one window at a time.

The transparency can be configured to a setting between 0 and 255, with the default set to 150. However, the transparency can only be set from the command line. The easy solution is to create a shortcut, then modify the shortcut to include the command line switch. For example, to change the transparency to 200, add "-alpha 200" to the end of the command. A shortcut is also convenient in case you want to copy it into the Startup folder so that it launches automatically when Windows starts.
