Visual Tooltip - Vista Like Thumbnail Previews And Dock For Windows XP
One of the many display enhancements that Windows Vista added was the ability to get a small preview thumbnail when hovering over particular applications in the taskbar. Mac fans will say they’ve this feature for a long time and Microsoft has gone a done another copy and paste from them. Some of us haven’t made the plunge though and haven’t jumped on the Vista bandwagon yet. So, for those of us whom haven’t made that jump yet and want the thumbnail preview. Check out Visual Tooltip from Chris Soft.
Visual Tooltip quickly adds this fancy feature through a simple executable file.
You can then move these thumbnail anywhere on your screen for quick access to each of these tasks.
And in addition, this simple program also has the ability for a small dock that you can move these thumbnails to, or add any other application you would like.

As a Vista fan, i am mostly in favour of anything that runs on Windows but resembles Vista. This is not exception, and thus, i will give it a try.

I do like a lot of what Vista has to offer, but I still find it amazing to find how many applications still are not compatible with it.

How do I remove it? It does not show up on the listing of programs. I found that it interfered with my excel spreadsheets when i attempt to right click or use the menu system. The drop down menus were all blanked out.
