Product Description:

Overflow is an application designed to quickly launch applications, open documents, or access folders while keeping the size of your dock in check. Anything you want can be added to the Overflow interface, making it accessible though a few simple mouse clicks or keystrokes. The interface is resizable, and fully customizable. Create separate categories for your applications, work files, games, or anything else you want to be able to access quickly. After using Overflow, we think you'll find it just as indispensable as we do.

What's new in this version:

  • Dragging an item from the finder to the Overflow icon now pops up the Overflow interface to allow drags to applications within Overflow.
  • Added the ability to hide Overflow's dock icon.
  • Added a status bar item for access to menu commands while the dock icon is hidden.
  • Added an option to have window pop up under the mouse when hotkey is pressed.
  • Clicking the dock icon can now bring up the window relative to the dock icon.
  • Items can now have custom names in Overflow (without renaming the item in the Finder).
  • Now caches document icons to increase launch speed and speed when first switching to a category, and avoid problems with items on unmounted drives.
  • Page Up / Page Down keys can now be used to move between categories.
  • Memory usage has been improved.
  • Many other under-the-hood improvements and bug fixes.

Overflow ReviewBEST ORGANIZATIONAL LAUNCHER EVER! - Version: 2.5.5, 9/13/2008 05:27PM PST

After spending quite with Drag Thing, and not arriving at what I needed or wanted - I finally gave OVERFLOW a chance. WHY DID I WAIT SO LONG!?!? This app is the elegant, intuitive, flexible and incredibly useful app I'd been searching for. Within seconds I was up and running; getting organized - and everything done that I wasted so much time trying to do with other apps. My hat is off to the developer of this app! THANKS SO MUCH! It works the way I work, smooth - consistent and organized! And launching or apps etc., is super-fast!! A winner on all levels.

Overflow CommentaryWorks great and is easy to set up. - Version: 2.5.4, 1/25/2008 12:00AM PST

I tried this application for the first time a few days ago. After using it for a couple of days I purchased it. I received my license code in less than 30 minutes.

Over the years I've tried a variety of "launcher" apps. Some worked well but either cluttered up the desktop or weren't quick and easy to use. This app doesn't clutter up the desktop, is very easy to set up, and works great! I wish that I'd found it earlier.
