Manage Tools

This window contains the links to the Tools you can add to the ToolStix panels or launch the Tool directly from this window.

The window consists of two panels. Drag the bottom of the top panel (a small drag icon will appear) to adjust the height of the panels

Windows Tools

In this panel you see:

• all programs installed on your computer;
• 40+ built-in Windows programs (Calculator, Notepad, Clock, Weather, system programs and many others).

Note: some Windows utilities and support programs are ignored.

You may find programs that you do not need here and would like to remove them from the list.

Right-click on a program and click the Remove. The program will be blacklisted and will no longer appear in this panel.

OmniStix automatically populates this list each time a user launches this window. It cannot be edited. You can either remove the program from this list (blacklist it) or copy it to the bottom panel, where you can change the program name and icon and add a tooltip.

To do this, click the Copy to Omni Tools within the item context menu.

Double click a program to run the program.

Omni Tools

In this panel you can see:

• tools we made for the ToolStix;
• macros (you can add yours);
• user-added tools, i.e., links to the files (documents, programs, etc.) and web pages.
• Windows Apps copied from the upper panel.

Tool context menu allows you to delete or edit a tool.

Double-click a tool to run the tool.
