Dropshelf overview

Dropshelf is a place to put things. Drag anything to the edge of the screen, and a shelf slides out. Drop files, images, text and links — whatever you want to keep handy, or move from one place to another.

Create shelves wherever there is space at the edge of the screen, including on multiple monitors. Dropshelf makes it easy to drag items between windows, tabs, full screen apps and spaces.

Some things you can do....

Create multiple shelves for different items
Paste clipboard contents directly to a shelf
Drop multiple files onto one shelf to combine them in one drag
Copy from the shelf to the clipboard
Drag images from Photos or web pages and have them "resolve" into a file
Put things in Dropshelf to keep for later shelves minimize when not in use
Reveal shelf items in Finder

Please note: files dropped on a shelf are stored by reference and continue to reside in their original file system location. Thus, Dropshelf cannot be used to "declutter" you desktop.

Dropshelf is integrated with OS X in several more thoughtful, workflow-enhancing ways — check out the User Guide for some tricks and tips.

Dropshelf is brilliant. Plan and simple. It shaves second of time off menial tasks, numerous time a day, which adds up in saved time. Even just before writing this review, I shelved multiple images from different folders then dragged them all onto Photoshop in one fell swoop. Lovin’ it. Occasionally, I help others setup and manage their Macs, and any time I try to drag files to the edge of their screen it’s missing, and I’m reminded how many time I rely in it throughout my day. Dropshelf has easily become an indispensable addition to my workflow. It’s tied with Alfred as my favourite OS X add-on.

I just bought Dropbox I like it a lot for managing my various snippets and such but I can't for some unknown reason get it to open on the right side.I put in my Preference in Preferences but it still opens on the left side of the screen. I wrote to the Developer and hope he replies .I am using Yosemite as my OS. It is great in design and soI am giving it 5 Stars. But in the position it is in I have trouble with it. I would prefer it opened on my right side of the desktop.

This just gets better and better. I just read the online manual and discovered many features I will use every day. I highly recommend you read it. It's well organized and well illustrated. One particularly brilliant feature is the "Menu Button" below the dragged item in the shelf. If you dragged a part of a web page you can convert it to an HTML, RTF or TXT format. This button changes depending on the item's type. This is one utility I use continuously every day. Easily best in class. Thanks ... Ken
