Very nice, but if you have multiple displays, it only works for the main one: windows on the secondary display aren't dimmed.

What is LeDimmer?

LeDimmer is a small Windows application (<200KB) that sits in the system tray and simply dims the screen around the foreground window.

The numerous advantages include being able to focus on the task at hand, finding the window in focus at first glance even on multi-monitors, and it even looks nice. General Windows usage is not changed at all: click or alt-tab into a dimmed window and it brightens into focus.

You can specify a bitmap as the dimming picture to get a nice glossy effect on your screen, embed your company logo, admire your dulcine, etc…

It couldn’t be simpler to use: start it, it sits in the system tray, quit it with the tray menu or the shortcut ctrl-shift-q. That’s it…

LeDimmer works on Windows 2000, XP and Vista and is free.
