Kuadro
Kuadro is a Windows application that helps users display multiple pictures on top of all other desktop content for easy reference. It is possible to rotate, resize and reposition the images according to personal preferences.
Workflow optimization
The program allows you to open several reference photos and place them on the screen simultaneously. Like in ACDSee, there are tools for zooming in to examine smaller details. Moreover, an option to change the panel transparency level is provided. Individual pictures can be quickly converted to grayscale mode as well.
Users are able to rotate imported items in 90 degree increments and duplicate them if necessary. Additionally, instruments for showing related files in Windows Explorer are included.
Layout management
It is possible to position the pictures as needed and save the resulting layout. You can create multiple custom presets and effortlessly switch between them. These manipulations are performed via the corresponding system tray icon.
