How can you make Windows 7 sidebar work like Vista's
Can the Gadgets be on a Sidebar on Windows 7 like on Vista (and letting the Sidebar occupy part of the desktop instead of "floating on top" of other content)? And where did the Notes Gadget go?
I use a KVM switch to switch between my Core 2 Duo and Quad core computer, so I used to run the Notes Gadget and put down "Quad" and "Core 2 Duo" on the Note to let myself know which computer I am using. But now the Notes Gadget seems to be gone.
I see... I like to look at the Time and the CPU Meter all the time, so having the sidebar visible all the time is somewhat important... – nonopolarity – 2009-10-24T21:22:22.920
I can set the Clock and the CPU Meter to show up on top all the time, except they always tend to cover up some content, so they need to be moved around all the time. – nonopolarity – 2009-10-24T21:23:45.647
Have you tried to use Aero Peek? There's a little rectangle next to the clock. Just hover your mouse over it and the desktop and all the gadgets on it will appear. – alex – 2009-10-24T21:28:17.167
