SliderDock is a free application launcher. It helps keep the computer desktop clean, uncluttered and organized.
SliderDock is a customizable tool and comes with a variety of setting options. Themes can change the look of the application; Controls can be used to change the ring size, rotation speed and icon size; ShortcutKeys can activate keyboard controls; and Shader effects add special effects when mouse moves over icons.
SliderDock has a nice interface that makes it quite different than other app launchers, like Launchy, FARR, and Promptu Launcher.
Items that need quick launch should be added to the application launcher by simply dragging and dropping them over the iconseeker. The various items added will form a ring shaped group.
Each element forming the ring is like a shortcut to the items added onto the iconseeker. Also, SliderDock provides the option of grouping icons together in a ring. Therefore, various icons can be differently grouped resulting in multiple rings. This helps organize applications/icons better.
