In other words, Restoring the icon positions will place the icons in the same area of the screen regardless if you're view in 640x480 or 1280 x 1024 or whatever.

Ever accidently choose Clean Up in the Finder or find that after you played that fun game which switched your monitor resolution, your icons got all screwed up and thrown all over your desktop? Especially after you just spent all that time placing them nice and neatly? Desktop Resetter will 'remember' where you keep your icons, and if they ever get moved, just run this program and it will automatically re-arrange them to the positions you had set them to! It'll even do it in the background. If you have an '040 processor or better (PPC), it will probably only take about 2 seconds or so. What's New? 1.1 - Desktop Resetter now remembers the Trash and Disk icons, has multi-resolution support, and hot keys! 1.1.1 - Introduces a fix on some machines where it would report a Finder Error when Auto Switch to Background was turned on in the preferences. -- Nick D'Amato http://members.home.net/goddfadda/ [Archived as /info-mac/gui/desktop-resetter-111.hqx; 87K] ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 28 Apr 1998 11:54:00 -0700 From: dumont@micronet.fr Subject: [*] Dicom2Pict Dicom2Pict is a simple Drag&Drop application that convert images in the DICOM format used by many Radiology modalities into PICT images. To use it simply drag any folder containing Dicom images and the program will recursively scan whatever is contained in the folder or any subfolder and will convert it to pict using the information (window level and window width) contained in the header. Since I have little time to devote to this program, I distribute it with the sources and the CodeWarrior project files. Dicom2Pict is Freeware. I hope people will find it usefull.

It also introduces DragThing Lite - a smaller, easier to use DragThing for the rest of us. The official DragThing web page is also now available at www.dragthing.com - you can download the latest version of DragThing there and get all the up-to-date news and information. DragThing is an application dock designed to tidy up the icons littering your desktop. Simply drag an application from the Finder onto an empty square in a dock and then drag documents onto it as normal.In addition, the docks can contain files, folders, disks, servers and URLs, and there is also an option to display the currently running processes in a special dock. DragThing requires at least System 7.5 and a Macintosh with a minimum of a Motorola 68020 or PowerPC 601 processor. Storing URLs in docks requires the Internet Config extension to be installed, version 1.1 or later. It is $15 shareware, and can be registered with Kagi via the web, or with the enclosed 'Register' program. Thanks, James --- What's new in 2.5? Now includes these remarkably cool features: * New DragThing Lite now included - it's a smaller, easier to use DragThing for the rest of us. * Dock windows can be set to 'pop' to the front when dragging into them - all the benefits of floating windows without losing the desktop space. * Windows now fit around the tabs when the titlebar is hidden, freeing up more valuable desktop space. * Tabs and current item name bar can finally be placed vertically at the left and right hand side of docks. * Optional sound effects.
