Total Launcher Guide: How to Create, Link, and Resize Pop-Up Windows

Window containers in Total Launcher provide dynamic floating overlays that expand user interface real estate without consuming permanent homescreen space. Configuring an object's tap action to trigger a specific window allows for the seamless deployment of pop-up app folders, hidden widget panels, and custom sub-menus. Once linked, adjusting the spatial dimensions and visual properties ensures the floating container aligns precisely with the overall layout geometry. The following step-by-step procedure details how to establish the tap action link, generate a new named window, and configure its screen boundaries.
