Virus Scan for GiMeSpace Desktop Extender 3D

Frank Stephens I understand that this can be used to make windows larger than the screen, but for cases where the windows fit on the normal desktop, you can use Win7's built-in magnifier. Use Win+ to activate and zoom in, Win- to zoom out. You don't have to shift the "+" key, so technically it's Win=.

GiMeSpace Hello Frank!

Yes windows does allow you to zoom in on windows but it doesn't allow you to zoom out. With GiMeSpace you can look at your extended desktop like your screen resolution would be much bigger then normal so you can get much bigger windows or many more windows then normal on your screen.
Windows is not able to do this.

GiMeSpace GiMeSpace is designed to have minimal system impact and be totally transparent to the normal way programs work. The worst problem that you can encounter is that some window objects that you want to stay fixed are scrolling. But this can be resolved by removing those window classes from the scrolling windows list by double clicking on them in the GiMeSpace control panel. For the rest there should not be any reason for it not to work with any other software.

E. S. Hallo,
2 questions:
1. a)does 1 installation per footprint mean, that - in case of having to make a new window installation - one can not activate the software again?
b)what´s in case of changing harddisk or ram?
c) or do you offer an online deactivation -possibility at least for planned system changes?
2. how does the software work on multi-monitor-systems?

Thank you for answering in adbance
E.S.

GiMeSpace 1 The software protection is handled by Digtal River. is not locked to the windows installation but is smart enough to recognize if it is activated on a different system. It does check online if is not activated twice on different computers. Changing ram or hd will not deactivate the installation.
2 Yes, there is no problem using it with many monitors.

Software Guy Exactly - 3 computers is not a bulk order. hence the need for a family pack of 3 or 5 licenses for non-commercial (home, family, single user or other) use. Many other companies offer a 3 machine or 5 machine license (non-commercial) for just exactly such occurrances. So, we either see a user friendly license (all his/her non commerce machines) or a 3 computer or 5 computer family license (again non-commerce) as a family friendly way to offer multiple licenses cost effectively.
These were just suggestions as once a family starts using software, they tend to stay and upgrade with the software they like. Family packs are a great way to develop a customer base. My daughter may borrow my laptop, start using some utility she likes - she takes it back to college and before you know it many want the software and additional new sales have more than compensated the small discounts. And this is exactly the kind of software students might like - they can open multiple windows and scroll or pan between them when writing a paper as an example. But for them to use it and pay, it must be cost effective to them.
And with the FREE virtual desktops out there like moo0 multidesktop, the competition is stiff. Enough said.

Michael R. About my screenshot-question above:

>> I tried many things to make this happen, but it is not possible." (from the Website's FAQ)

Perhaps it would work to let the OS display (i.e. make visible) all parts of the virtual screen (one by one), make snapshots and afterwards glue the pictures together (like a panorama picture) to create a screencapture of all the regions.

This might be flickering, but some of the screenshot-tools, which proclaim, that they can capture a whole window and not only the visible parts do it similar: They are scrolling the content down to make it all visible.

I suppose it wouild be a great advantage to be able to do this. I suppose for me this would be the only really useful reason, I would (temporarily) activate a virtual display.

Michael R. Is it possible to define the size of the virtual desktop?
Or 'jump' via command-line call to a certain position, i.e. define the visible upper-left position, which should be visible?
Than it would be easier to make a snapshot of the visible part of the virtual desktop and glue the pictures afterwards together.

Louis H SnagIt can do it.... (Caveat. At present I am only able to capture what is off-screen IF I leave a small piece of the windows showing and include them in the area I indicate I wish to capture. As long as I do that, it captures everything. If there is a way to get SnagIt to capture a window that is completely off-screen, I have not figured out how to get it to do so.)

I am using SnagIt 12 on Win 7 64 bit Home Premium.

The how-to is located in the help file you can download from

http://www.techsmith.com/...ation.html

You want to find the section "Selection Properties" and the subsection "Extended Window Tab."

SnagIt 12 has a "preview" function that will allow you to see the full area off-screen that you are wanting to capture. This allows you to insure that you have the correct dimensions selected.

Tim Parsons Can you clarify the licensing? The details above suggest that the license covers a single PC and a laptop, but it also says it's a hardware footprint and that licenses can't be transferred between computers, and that the install has to be within two days -- which sounds like a single machine only.

Also, I have an earlier version of GimeSpace (no 3D in its name!) that I use occasionally to get round the limitations of a lack of vertical realestate on my netbook's 600 pixel high screen, but I find it too intrusive to leave it running all the time (it occasionally throws a child window into the long grass for no obvious reason); is the new version easier to unload and reload and configure? (Sorry, just realised that Aero is required for 3D so it won't run on my netbook anyway. Is there any way to check for updates to my existing version?)

GiMeSpace Hi Tim!

The license is valid for only one computer, but if for some reason (hardware changes, computer breaks down) we are able to transfer it to an other computer.
If you have an old version you should be able to upgrade to a new version as long as it was bought via digital river.
GiMeSpace is as easy to run and exit as any other program. It has a lot of different options because many people have different needs. Still it is designed to have as little impact on your computer as possible.

Brad Hello Jorrit,

To clarify the Fine Print for myself, the statement is made: "Transfer of a license to another owned computer is not allowed"

Does this apply to a situation wherein I purchase a new computer.

Would I be able to use my existing license previous activated on an old computer to install on my newly purchased computer? Or would I be required to make a secondary purchase?

Thank-you, Brad

GiMeSpace Hi Brad,

Just like with windows, the software is linked to the computer. The registration system cannot check if the software is still being used on the old computer. So in general this transfer is not allowed.
How ever in the past when someones computer broke a week after purchasing the software I of course allowed a new copy to be installed on his new computer.

Hope this makes sense,
Jorrit

However when I visit the webpage of the software here, I see this:

Paul So am I suppose to use the same computer for the rest of my life and not upgrade my computer because this company wants me to re-purchase the software every time I get a new computer or upgrade? NO THANKS. I read further up the chat that they LET a guy transfer the license when his computer broke down a week after purchasing. WHAT A NICE GESTURE! This software must be meant for old people that use the same computer for years because anyone that is super computer savvy is going to be upgrading frequently and buying new computers and if we keep having to re-purchase every piece of software it gets astronomical. Apparently they would rather sell no copies than let you use it on ONE computer AT A TIME, because that would be MUCH more reasonable.

geo User I have mentioned this before but I would like to get it going again for this incidence.
There are ways that the developer can control the installation and activation of a license. There are business out there that THAT is what they do.
So, for example I have software that I can uninstall the license by contacting the licensing server or by providing an un-install code that I get when I finish the removal of the software. plus there is always the background communication when the software is running with the licensing server.
So, in my opinion this kind of licensing policy (today's offer) keeps me from buying
that product.
And to add to what Paul was saying earlier, I change computers way often than the 5 year interval, more like every 2 years, not to mention the frequent burps of WINDOWS that require to use some clean install image (most resent for me was a windows update that TRASHED everything upon reboot.

So, no cigar for me.

GiMeSpace This continious "phoning home" license system was part of the original Desktop Extender 8 years ago but gave more problems then sollutions because people required programs to be activated on computers that are offline or behind restrictive company firewalls. The current system has no trouble like that. And like I said: for every license you buy you get a bigger discount, see:
http://www.gimespace.com/discounts.html
So it is not that you have to pay the full amount every time you activate a new installation. You can also buy in bulk if needed, license keys you can use whenever you like, they don't expire.

John Brazier Interestingly, it is unlikely that the licence of this product as stated would be upheld by a court. This is because a 'licence' is by definition a 'licence to use'; if you buy a full copy of Windows you can always transfer it to another computer: you have purchased a licence to use it; as long as you don't use it on two machines at once.

When a manufacturer sells you a machine with an 'OEM' version of Windows, it is tied to the machine (by agreement between Microsoft and the manufacturer). But this is because the manufacturer has sold you a 'product', and Windows is part of the package deal in the product.

Now here the author is saying you are buying a licence, but with restrictions. But at first blush it basically isn't a licence, it's a 'permission to use under my arbitrary conditions'. This isn't a 'licence' as is generally understood by the courts.

I could well be wrong - I don't know of any case over the points I've described dealing with economical client software. But who is going to fight over a $25 spend?

I'm interested in buying it, but in doing so I'm assuming it is nine dollars that I'm writing off. I suggest you do the same.

The first line states "Each license allows installation on a single computer and a laptop", while two lines down from this line is stated "Online license activation is required with a hardware footprint, and 1 installation per footprint". If the program can truly be installed on both a PC and a laptop, should it not have at least "two" "installation[s] with "two" seperate "footprint[s]"? Just wanted clarification before purchase.

Mitchell User You have been so fantastically responsive that I have closed all of my resident programs in advance of reinstalling your software. I will report back once I give it another test drive; meanwhile, if anyone has the remotest interest in this program please download it and test it. If it works for me I am going to purchase the license. It's less than nine bucks for goodness sakes

Mitchell User It turns out that I had not read the introduction carefully enough. I went to the edge of the window, which was maximized to fit into the entire screen. I needed to go a bit further to the left and then the window began to scroll. I need to test this program further to determine to what useful purpose I can put it. I have dual monitors and the window that has been scrolled partially appears in the second monitor. I need to work with the program to determine how I can expand the desktop on both monitors.

GiMeSpace Hi Mitchell, yes that is correct, windows doesn't see your monitors as 2 separate desktops but as one continuous desktop. So that is why windows seamless scroll between the monitors.

Dom User I had an earlier version of this (pre-3D) and like it. Now I have Fences on my desktop. Would there be a conflict?

GiMeSpace No there is no problem combining the programs. If there are windows that you don't want to scroll will the desktop extender you can simply add them to the exclude list.

Wade Townsend I currently am using your Desktop Extender product that I purchased back in 2018. How is this different from that product? Is it just that this product uses 3D technology or is this totally different from your Desktop Extender product?

Please reply ASAP as this sale is only available for another 8 hours...

Thanks.

GiMeSpace The 3D version is functional very similar, it has a few extra functions like hotkeys for screen positions and screen capture, but the biggest difference is that you can work with windows zoomed in or out according to your preference.

Linton User Does this allow you to place additional shortcut icons on the desktop and simply scroll the screen in which ever direction to get to the ones that are currently out of view?

Mar 13 2020 at 10:38pm Copy Link

GiMeSpace No, the desktop is a static window that cannot be scrolled. This is about having more windows open next to each other like when you have multiple monitors, also it allows you to make windows that are bigger then your screen so more information can be displayed. You simply scroll by pushing the mouse to the border of the scfreen.

bvssunnydale Hi, just wondering if this can be used with MULTIPLE monitors. The testimonials stress it's use with a single monitor (but I have 3). Thanks very much for your help.

GiMeSpace Hi bvsunnydale, yes there is no problem running this on many monitors, it is all one big desktop. You can download the trial to see for your self how it works.

Dunking I am interested in trying this out to see what it can do for me, but when I install it I get told there are 0 days left of the trial. I don't think I installed it before, but if I did it was a very very long time ago. Any way to restart the trial timer?

If it makes a difference I am trying this out in a VM.

GiMeSpace Hi Dunking,
Unfortunately there is no way to reset the trial period except reinstalling Windows. You can also try the normal desktop extender (not 3D) which has the most important functionality.
Yes you can try it in a virtual machine. It has a special option that makes scrolling possible in a virtual machine.
Only other option is to try it out on another computer.

Dunking I got this working but now have another question: in a multi-monitor setup can it be restricted to a single monitor? My reason for asking is because I have a large main monitor and much smaller second monitor sitting on top. The second monitor is used for things like status displays, IM chats, etc. I don't want that moving or messing with in any way.

Dec 31 2020 at 3:46am Copy Link

GiMeSpace Hi Dunking,
Sorry, no that is not possible, but if that monitor is on top and you only scroll in horizontal direction, then you could exclude the programs that show on the top monitor in the non scrolling windows list and that way you get what you are asking for. However if you also scroll in vertical direction the windows from the manin monitor will still scroll up to the top monitor even if you exclude the programs that are shown there.

bvssunnydale Hi, easy question - I use CTRL and the mouse-scroll button to expand within the current window size often (browsers, Excel, etc). Does this app (which looks very useful) re-map that capacity or use a different keyboard combination to allow the entire current window to be expanded? Thanks. I realize I could download and install to test but I'm thinking others may be wondering about this too.. Thanks again.

Dec 31 2020 at 8:04am Copy Link

Dunking Thanks. I would prefer a horizontal-only scroll, but my interest is also in the zoom out feature, and I suspect that would affect the small screen too.

Perhaps, if you fancy further development of this, restricting to a single monitor might be useful for more people. I can't be the only one that uses secondary monitors for static reference whilst working on the main monitor. Indeed, I use virtual desktops, but only on the main monitor - the secondaries all retain the reference material whatever the main one is doing.

GiMeSpace Hi bvsunnydale,
The desktop extender is not using the CTRL key like that, only the combination CTRL-SHIFT and CTRL-ALT, so your way of working with browsers,etc is not affected by this program.

GiMeSpace - Dec 31 2020 at 8:31am Copy Link

GiMeSpace Hi dunking,
The Zoom function would cover your entire workspace, wich includes all monitors, but don't worry, it is just an overlay and the windows you excluded are not affected by it once you leave the 3D view.
Sorry, technically it is impossible to exclude a monitor like you request, only individual windows can be excluded.

bvssunnydale HI, I purchased and am trying out. Is there a way to lock the position of apps in place so that when scrolling left-right they simply move as a group? I'm gettng vertical movement and sometimes apps next to each other are simply disappearing, seemingly randomly. I would like to move the cursor ONLY horizontally and but lock my apps into their current horizontal position on screen. Thanks.

GiMeSpace Hi bvssunnydale,
Yes you can select in the GiMeSpace control panel to only use the horizontal scrolling direction. Also you can select to autoarrange apps in horizontal direction. Many more options are there to adjust to your needs.
If there are apps that you don't want to scroll then you can remove them from the scrolling windows list.
I have never heard of apps disappearing, if you found a bug then please send a bug report with a detailed way to reproduce it to gimespace

gimespace.com
Thanks for the feedback!

bvssunnydale Hi, possibily due to conflicts with other apps, I tried different settings but feel that - on multiple monitors - GiMeSpace introduces more problems then solutions. However, it might be beneficial on single-monitor setups (like my laptop) - so I'm un-installing from my desktop. Are there any special steps I must use to protect my license/installations when uninstalling from my desktop? Thanks.

GiMeSpace Hi bvssunnydale,
It shouldn't be a problem using it on many monitors since it is just one big workspace for windows. It might be that one of your apps is causing trouble. Some apps don't like it when they are moved around. Excluding such an app from the scrolling list usually solves the problem.
When uninstalling your license should be preserved.

Bi User Hello -
Will this mess up one's carefully arranged desktop icons? For ex., My icons are myriad and also down-sized (via mouse track-wheel) so that they fir neatly. They are also, of course, carefully arranged into functional associations.
And a less important question for me, will it work in other virtual desktops,? For ex., I use dexpot and have set up four different desktops but dexpot does, I think, allow a lot more than 3 secondary desktops.
Thank you!

The desktop extender does not affect your desktop icons, they all stay in the same place so you do not have to worry.

Does that mean that I cannot reinstall it on the same machine?

Robert Crombie What I would prefer is a soliton that does not risk messing with Windows.
It can show a full screen form (some may like like smaller as well, but full screen is fine for me).
On that form, we can have shortcuts to programs, files, etc, etc.

Shirley no on could argue with that ?

GiMeSpace Hi Rob. This program doesn't risk messing with windows, it has no risk at all since all it does is moving windows around to create more desktop space.
But what you describe is already possible in windows, just create a folder, select icon view and put all your shortcuts in there, done.
