Dockland Software has released Fantasktik, a taskbar application for Mac OS X 10.5 (“Leopard”). It lets users see and switch between open windows and applications.
Fantasktik groups windows by application. Double-clicking on an application icon provides a way to manage the taskbar real-estate by collapsing and expanding the windows associated with the application. Among Fantasktik’s features are large document previews created with Leopard’s Core Animation technology. Just hover over a window and Fantasktik will display a smooth animation to show the window contents.
Inspired by the new multitouch interfaces, Fantasktik introduces Click and Slide to browse through open windows. Click and Slide offers a way to see all windows while keeping a minimal interface.
Dockland Software is currently offering Fantasktik at an introductory price of US$9.99 until Sept. 30. After this it will cost $14.99. A fully-functional, 15-day demo version is available for download.
