Mesa Dynamics Adds Widget Layouts to Amnesty

Washington, DC – June 15, 2005 – Mesa Dynamics today announced the release of Amnesty Widget Browser .85b introducing support for multiple widget "layouts" that can be called to the desktop at any time.

Each "layout" in Amnesty Widget Browser is a virtual space that remembers widget configurations on the screen. For example, one layout may contain often used widgets, another may display games and puzzles and another layout may contain news gathering widgets. Widget layouts can be useful in dealing with increasingly large widget libraries or for users with limited screen real estate.

Amnesty Widget Browser is a utility for Tiger and Panther (10.3.9) that allows dashboard widgets to live directly on the desktop via an icon in the system menu bar. Widgets loaded in Amnesty Widget Browser run completely independent of the Dashboard environment, maintain their own preferences and feature additional properties such as window level and opacity.

The latest public beta version of Amnesty Widget Browser is immediately available for download at mesadynamics.com. Version 1.0 is slated for release July 2005.
