The software developer lists a total of 18 features that the application is providing of which 16 are working on all supported operating systems and 2 exclusively on Windows 2000. Here is a short overview of some of the interesting features of the software program:

• Scrolling in inactive windows
• Changing window transparency
• Roll up windows
• Set top most status of windows with right-click
• Alt Right-Click mouse only alternative

You find a complete list of features in the readme provided by the author. The most impressive aspect of the software is the low memory footprint of just 2.5 Megabytes and the fact that every feature can be turned on or off.

All seven default actions can be turned off in case they are not needed or interfere with other applications. It is also possible to change the action by assigning different keys and mouse buttons / movements to it.

One of the main features of AltMove is the creation of new actions. A new action can be created by selecting an template from ten available ones. Among them hiding windows, emulating keystrokes or making screenshots.

A click on ok will load the selected action in the main interface. The user has to assign one key and a mouse button for the new action which becomes active immediately afterwards. Some of the features, like moving or resizing windows, ignore restrictions which means that it is possible to resize windows that are usually not resizable.

The middle mouse button is by default assigned to the magnifier which unfortunately interfered with the middle mouse click in Firefox. It was however no problem to add a key to the magnifier.
