Desktop Curtain 4+

When I'm writing, reading or thinking about something I really want to hide everything but the singular app (and usually app window) that I'm interacting with. But I don't want to make it fullscreen and mess with the scaling of things and what not. This app does just what I have been wanting by allowing me to quickly and easily hide everything - desktop icons, other windows, etc., but mainly the desktop icons since they cannot be easily hidden and restored.

This app really helps me focus and remove clutter from my vision.

The only fault I'd share, and it's quite minor, is there is a flicker when changing windows, desktops, and other window related things. But since that is a "cosmetic" problem and not something that happens when I'm focusing my attention on a window, I didn't reduce my rating for this minor glitch.

I'm generally impressed with the work from Many Tricks. Thank you for your contributions.

I use this app to cover my desktop for presentations and it does a great job. Simple yet feature rich. I also use it to hide my desktop clutter so I can concentrate when I work. My only concern is that the app hasn’t been updated for some time. As long as they remain invested in maintaining and improving the app, I think it’s well worth the price.

I make public presentations all the time. Desktop Curtain is the most important tool that I have for running my presentations cleanly. All of the junk on my computer stays nicely hidden from the audience.

Desktop Curtain also keeps my working environment under control, removing clutter from my workspace. I could not be more thrilled to have this little application!
