Managing all the apps, docs and web shortcuts on your computer can be a daunting task. My prototype application was called Arlequin and it ran on a dedicated mouse button (or a customized key combination) on top of all other applications. It stored all your favorite shortcuts, web links, documents and an instant search box in a pie menu positioned right around the mouse pointer.

I developed this as part of my Bachelor thesis project in 2008 when Windows Presentation Foundation was the new kid on the block.

And this is what it looked like in the end.
ARLEQUIN is a desktop management client developed in Windows Presentation Foundation. It uses pie menus and runs on a dedicated mouse button on top of all other applications. It stores all your favorite shortcuts, web links, documents and an instant search box in a menu positioned right around the mouse pointer.
