ScreenFloat allows you to create screenshots which float above all other windows so that information is always readily available.

ScreenFloat is the ideal choice for anyone tired of moving and resizing windows around just to access a piece of information hidden behind them.

It is a great way to transfer not copy-paste-able information to another application.

It is also an excellent tool to store information for later use.

ScreenFloat offers you a great way to organize your shots with the built-in "Shots Browser" which lets you tag and name shots and

Downloaded the demo.
So far it works fine, I really like the organized and stored shots in the browser without fiddling, renaming and organizing on your desktop all the time.
But I miss some feature that I found to be very useful in e. g. SnapNDrag. The option to make either full screen shots or window shots.
Think I will purchase it then...
Otherwise good work.

So useful!!

Screen Float is made of win.

It just makes life so much easier when it comes to taking and managing screenshots.

Sure, you can press ⌘-shift-4 and select a portion of the screen. But then you have to fiddle around renaming stuff, it's just a pain in the backside. Managing all those stupid files cluttering up my desktop drives me crazy.

I don't think the guy who made this has heard of cmd-tab.
Two keys, easy switching. Saves me eight bucks.

Hi.
I'm the "guy who made this" ;)

I thought so as well. But I made this app simply because cmd-tab and the stuff already built into Mac OS X wasn't doing it for me.

As Lvdoc said, you can download a demo from the website and give it a try and see how it simplifies your workflow.

Take care,
Matthias

I can actually see many uses for ScreenFloat in scientific analysis, especially if it allows opacity control of the floating image. Will have to try the demo.

Developer: Unlike so many other new developers out there, you actually offer a demo! You need to make this more readily known. A lot of us have been complaining about the lack of "try before you buy" that seems to be the new norm. The MU page gives the immediate impression that yours is only "buy or nothing," even though a visit to your site proves otherwise. I was intrigued by this program, and your willingness to stand by your product via a demo has now only increased my appreciation of it. Thank you!
