A member of the Windows 7 desktop team disclosed to the media the true meaning of the Windows 7 aero topic. Aero functions, including Windows Vista, are composed of three parts: aero shake, aero snap, and aero peek. Aero represents four kinds of spirit in terms of metaphor: True, energetic, reflective, and open.
The developer also explained in detail the functions of Aero's three components:
Aero SHAKE:
You can select any window on the desktop and shake it on the screen. In this case, other windows (unselected and shaken) are minimized to the taskbar. After the other windows are minimized, if the user continues shaking, the other windows will be reset to the previous position on the desktop.
Aero snap:
This function applies the changes in the window when you drag the window to the left, right, top left, and top right of the screen.
Aero peek:
This is actually a thumbnail preview on the Windows 7 super taskbar. When you place the cursor over an icon on the taskbar, a window is automatically displayed for you to preview the current task.
In addition, the member also told the media that Microsoft has recently switched its R & D focus to Windows 8 R & D.
