Freeware of the Day:

SmallScreenX - See how your web pages look in different screen sizes.


SmallScreenX

A Cocoa port of the old "Small Screen" for the pre-X Mac OS (Inspired by Small Screen, written by Daniel Schaerer many years ago). The old version simply drew borders on your screen representing smaller resolutions -- useful for web design to simulate how different viewers may see a page without the hassle of switching your own resolution. This version (by a different author) allows you to have multiple, moveable, resizeable screens open at a time along with other nifty features.

New in v.2.2
  • Dimmer mode: dim the area outside of SmallScreens.
  • Restricted resizing: holding shift now constricts resizing (horizontal/ vertical/ aspect-ratio)
  • Menubar simulation: simulate the menubar within a SmallScreen
  • Border is now drawn outside of the "actual" border, enabling more accurate previewing
  • Tooltips
  • Opens System Preferences when Accessibility is not enabled
