What cool things could you do with Desktop Icon Toy?

Arrange Desktop Icons

  • You can arrange desktop icons by many complex figures, like:
  • Clock (all the icons will be aligned as a clock, showing the exact time)
  • Circle, Cross, Around, Spiral, Horizontal Ellipse, Vertical Ellipse.
  • Triangle, Rhombus, Pentagon, Hexagon.
  • 4-pointed Star, 5-pointed Star, 6-pointed Star, Hearts
  • Align to left, right, top or bottom.

Animate Desktop Icons

You can drag and drop desktop icons to make them run around the desktop, and double click the desktop to stop the running icons. According to your drag and drop time, the desktop icons will run with different speed, more quickly, more speed.

Add Hover Effects

You can add a hover effect by placing the mouse over a desktop icon. This makes the icon and its text dance (shake & blink)

Hide Desktop Icon Texts

You can remove the classic ugly text of desktop icons, optional, instead of a cool pop-up tooltip. The whole desktop will become neat and tidy.

Hide Desktop Icons

You can automatically hide desktop icons when mouse off the desktop or desktop icon. This can give you a pair of bright eyes to see your beautiful wallpaper.

  3. I like this program! When you re-arrange your icons as a clock, the icons really change each minute, so the time is correct. And there are many options to do things with your - normally static - icons on your desktop. Normally I hide them, but now it’s fun to show them! So in a scale from 0-10 I give the program 9 points.
