What are the desktop stickers we are talking about?
The simplest analogy is physical paper stickers with a sticky strip, which are usually stuck on surfaces with which they are constantly interacting.
Stickers for your PC desktop work in a similar way.
They have the following distinctive features:
- Displayed on top of shortcuts and programs (although it is possible to customize this function);
- Can be moved around the desktop if they get in the way;
- May be of different sizes depending on the amount of information written on the sticker;
- Typically, they have a bright color that cannot be ignored (although this indicator is also customizable);
- Some programs even have a setting that allows you to place a “sticker” on top of the window of the running program;
- Often, even in external design, they resemble paper stickers.
The use of such “reminders” is convenient when the desktop is slightly overloaded. Because otherwise they will only get in the way, covering the necessary shortcuts.
