  1. Possible Windows 8 Improvements By: Scott Hill

  2. Improve Windows 8 Split Screen Mode The only options for split screen mode currently is to have one screen take up the majority of the screen and the other takes up a little

  3. Improve Windows 8 Split Screen Mode People might use split screen mode more often and effectively if they had the option to have each screen take up have of the total screen area This could also allow people to use the desktop like the desktop is suppose to be use. Currently if the desktop is on the 1/3 side of the screen it doesn't function well

  4. Customizability and Settings Windows 8 has some customizability, but it is limited in what you can do

  5. Customizability and Settings Many people were upset that Windows 8 doesn’t offer an option to have a start button. I don’t think this is too much of a problem since if you move your mouse to the same location a start button appears, but I think that if you are in an app that a mini version of the start screen should pop up so you are still able to what your doing and go right back to it. Start

  6. Customizability and Settings Cut Copy Copy Sort By Sometimes when right clicking in touch mode it is possible to touch the screen again and do something that wasn’t intended. Having a pop out menu like this could also make it easier to select items in the menu with touch View Paste Personalize New

  7. Customizability and Settings – Tiles • The Windows 8 tiles are definitely better for touch, but there’s a few issues with them. • A few problems that I see are that they can take up a lot of space even when they are minimized, especially when using a mouse. • Also after awhile you get tried of looking at all those squares and rectangles.

  8. Customizability and Settings – Tiles • I think that allowing users to change the size of the tiles to their liking would allow people to use them more effectively. • Also their should be an option to group together

  9. Customizability and Settings – Tiles • If their was a grid system allowing three different sizes I think it would allow better customizability. • Allowing users to pick different shapes would probably make them happy. All those straight lines and blocks can be annoying to look at. • Also their should be an option to group together apps into folder tiles so that your start screen doesn’t become clustered and so you don’t have to search for what your looking for in all the apps

  10. More Grid and Shape Ideas – Tiles Add random, smoothed, and faded edge options

  11. More Grid and Shape Ideas – Tiles Individually Sliding Bars More Bar Options More Bar Options

  12. Customizability and Settings – Start Background • Add picture background options • More designs • Add an option to customize the designs with colors swatches • Add an option for animated backgrounds to bring the computer screen to life

  14. Possible Challenges with Purposed Changes • Icons fitting in the new shapes • Getting Apps to work in half split screen mode • Figuring out the coding to add the options

  15. Summary • Add more split screen modes • Add half screen start menu • Add option for alternative right click menu • Add Tile Customizations • More start screen backgrounds options and customizations • Improve desktop mode for touch • Add more advanced settings • In depth tutorial of features available • More functionality between Windows 8 programs the new features.
