Keeping the Battery Gauge Visible at All Times
When you first open the MaxTime battery gauge, it acts as a nor-
mal Windows program. Opening other programs may cover the
battery gauge. If you prefer to see the battery gauge at all times,
change the Style option in MaxTime.
The Style Option has these values:
❖
Normal - sets the battery gauge to act as a normal Windows
program. Other programs may display on top of the battery
gauge.
❖
Always on Top - displays the battery gauge on top of all other
Windows programs. This gives you a constant reminder of
how long you have before running out of power.
❖
On Title Bar - places the battery gauge on the title bar of the
active window. This also displays the battery gauge at all times.
