Application Launcher

Actually, I developed this application because I could not group by theme the shortcuts for launching applications that always open in the same place on the screen. Grouping is possible via File Explorer but it never opens at the same place 😞. Also, after configuration in an XML file, I was able to group by theme and always positioned identically 😃.

Below are my three groupings for my three themes:

Below is the configuration XML file for the “Video” group:

The window always opens at the 700/200 position on the screen with a size of 400/160.

  <position x="700" y="200" width="400" high="160"/>

  <iconSize width="48" high="48"/>
