Main Features

   ► Masks - Plain, with Images, Disguised
   ► Filer - Multiple file changes
   ► Reminder - All in one window

   Masks allow to hide some parts of the computer screen to concentrate
   on the other sections, or display some images or instructions on the
   screen when recording a professional computer video clip or preparing
   lectures.

   Filer is a time-saving utility for managing computer files.

   Reminder has all the necessary tools on the same window. It can be
   specially useful for office managers and busy business people.

Masks

    Screen Concealer allows instant covering portions of a computer screen
    using Masks. Masks can be defined, and placed on the screen when
    needed.

    Each mask consists of 4 Covers (A, B, C, D), which can be set as visible
    or invisible. Saved covers can be moved and resized temporarily, and
    returned to the saved position by clicking "Back to Saved" button .

Urgent Cover

    This is useful when we need to cover a portion of computer screen
    immediately, and we do not have time to define a mask for it.

    1. Bring the mouse pointer to the top-left side of the area to be covered.
   

    2. Press F11 (the default hot-key for Urgent Cover), to get a cover of the
        first unnamed mask.
   
        The mouse pointer goes to the bottom-right side of the cover.

    3. Click and drag the right-bottom side of the cover to the desired location.
   

    The hot key can be pressed 3 times more to bring the other covers of the
    mask (B, C and D) to cover any other portions of the screen.

Hot Keys

    Hot Keys are special shortcut keys that provide quick access to frequently
    used functions. Here, they can be used to:

    • show or hide Screen Concealer window
    • show or hide the last selected mask
    • show or hide any mask by its order number
    • bring the next available Urgent Cover to the mouse pointer

Move Aside Window by Title

    When a window appears in the middle of the screen which title includes
    any of the selected words, it can be quickly moved to a fixed place at the
    top-right side of the screen, where it is less likely that it covers the data
    that we are working on.

    This is done just by passing the mouse pointer over Screen Concealer
    icon at the right side of Windows Taskbar.

Disguise

    This feature makes parts of computer screen look disappeared, by
    matching the background of the covers to the screen. After "Disguise"
    is applied to a cover, other things will not be visible under that cover.

    It can be used when recording video clips from computer screen, creating
    animations, special effects, etc.

Covers with Images

    A cover can have a background image instead of a solid color. The image
    can be either a snapshot of what is behind the cover, or any other image.

    The images of the covers can be saved as files. The supported image
    formats are: BMP, JPG (JPEG), GIF, PNG, TIF (TIFF).

    In the following covers, the buttons, titles and borders are set as hidden,
    and "Fit Cover to the Image Size" is applied.

Opacity

    Each cover can have its own opacity. This is useful when we want the area under the cover
    be partially visible. The numbers on the right side of percentages are the shortcut keys.

    For example, to quickly change the opacity of a cover to 40% we can right-click on the cover
    and press: P 4.

    If the background of a cover is set to a GIF or PNG image file with transparent areas, the cover
    will keep the transparency. The following three covers are set with different opacities, and their
    buttons, titles and borders are set as hidden.

Filer

    Filer is a time-saving utility for computer professionals. It allows the following actions:

    • Coping filtered "Temporary Internet Files" to a path, allowing to get the files that
       have been accessed on the Internet
    • Deleting filtered "Temporary Internet Files"
    • Copying and deleting filtered cookies
    • Multiple upper / lower change case of file names and extensions
    • Multiple changing phrases in file names and extensions
    • Multiple changing "Create Date" or "Modify Date" of files or folders

    * Temporary Internet Files and Cookies apply only to Microsoft Internet Explorer.

    Security Limitations

        Filer actions are prevented on the following folders and files for security reasons,
        enforced either by Windows operating system, Screen Concealer, or both:

        • Windows system files
        • The folders and files in the operating system folder (Windows, WinNT ...)
        • The folders and files in the installation folder (Program Files, Program Files (x86), ...)

Reminder

    The necessary tools for Reminder are located on the same window. The messages that pass
    the due date, are automatically located at top of the message list with a different back color,
    which can be set in Options window.

    A message can be easily changed, delayed, set a new due date, or applied an audio file that
    can play a tone or say the message itself. A few audio files are included.

    Security protection is provided for
    Options, Filer and Reminder.

Software Modes

    • Limited mode - The software is initially available in this mode.

       It is free, allows to create one mask, (limited to 3/4 of the
       width and height of the computer screen). If the mask is not

       no limitation for Filer options and Reminder messages.

       A Screen Concealer Key can be purchased for a computer
       to convert the software to Full mode.

       per computer, and will always work on the computer that it
       is purchased for.
