Ways to configure the Madotate

Download it and extract it to any folder you think it right to place,You can see tow major app in the folder.One is Madotate,and mtatecfg,as it indicates,the madotate is the app to add 3dfx to windows and the mtatecfg is a config file for the app to work as you like!

Okay now let's do it,click on the Madotate,it will add a cool control bar on top of the titlebar(see the 2nd pic i posted above for more info)

Okay,you got it,and give the controlbar a try ,see?the windows is now 3D effected right?And you can make all you windows this way by clickin' on the controlbar.

Now let me tell you some control keys that we use to control how the 3D FX displays.

#1:Left Click,when you left click on the 3d effected windows ,and hole on your mouse,move around,see?you can move it around anywhere you like.

#2:Right Click,also right click on it,move it around,the windows can be changed in angle by this action .

#3:Page Up and Down,press the Page Up and Down can zoom in,out the windows(make sure the windows is active on)

Ways to configure the mtatecfg

Opps maybe you cannot see the Janpanese properly unless you have a JP verision windows or software that can support you to display it.

But for us,there only few options need to configure if you just want make a simple 3d effect

Now click on the mtatecfg or just also right click on the system tray icon of it,choose the 3nd option of it.

Now you're seein' the option dialog right?

Here i tell you how to make the windows tranparent.

#1:Go the first tab we need to check the 2nd checkbox and slide the slider from left to right to choose the tranparent depth!

#2:The 6th tab can exlude any window that you don't want it to 3d Effected,

it has two columns ,the first one displays the windows are now active,the 2nd allow you to add and del the app you don't want to 3D effected or delete it

there have two buttons,add and del.

Okay now,some simple funtions of this cool app are explained ,if you have any question feel free to ask,and if you are chinese you can grab it from http://www.skycn.com for a chinese version.Many thanks goes to the author of this cool app.

@Cuckoodu, cool your pipes down dude. He's just telling you to Search The Forum First. The Madotate app has been posted here before. Just do a search and you'll find it.

Chill.

calm down, it's just that double topics are annoying. the whole point of this forum is to make it as easy as possible for people to find things they're looking for; one feature was the tag policy, so that people can sift through releases, or requests, or links, etc.

but another thing is the general respect members have for keeping the forum neat, orderly, and uncluttered - this means making sure that you don't post on a topic already discussed, for instance.

it's great that you are searching for apps like madotate and it's even better that you're trying to be generous and share them with the community. but PLEASE, search the forum for "madotate" or "3dfx" or whatever you want to post about just to ensure you're not going to create a topic on something previously discussed. searching the forum would allow you to find an already-existant post, wherein you could add a comment explaining what you love about the application, but searching the forum in another instance might show you that there IS no previous post and you are therefore free to create your own.

zoot wasn't intending to offend; it's just frustrating to see members not follow general courtesy rules like searching the forum.

Double topics are annoying, but when we've seen this app 5 times or so its a little more than annoying ;)
