Effortlessly hide parts of your screen, while leaving a custom portion visible to make it easier to focus on a specific app running your Mac's desktop. #Hide screen #Screen mask #Hide desktop #Hide #Focus #Obscure
Even though you might have available a lot of desktop space, there are situations when you want to see only a specific section of your screen: you can make presentations, you can watch videos that have a smaller resolution without dealing with any distractions, and so on.
Masquerade is a small macOS application that places a mask on top of your screen and allows you to adjust the area you want visible. This way, you can clean up your desktop in no time, without having to deal with complex tools.
Working with the Masquerade application proves to be extremely intuitive: upon launch, the app superimposes the display, leaving visible only a rectangular area in the center of the screen.
If you move your mouse near the edges, you will be able to adjust the size of this area and change its shape with simple drag and drop actions.
For your convenience, the Masquerade mask becomes semi-transparent while resizing the visible area: this way you can see what is underneath and direct your actions accordingly. When you are done, the mouse will become invisible automatically.
Note that Masquerade also comes with an Options panel that offers you the possibility to change the default opacity level and color for the mask placed on top of the screen.
The app places window controls buttons in the top left corner area of the screen. However, only the first button works, and can be used to quit the application. These buttons, together with the About and Options buttons and the cursor will hide automatically.
Masquerade is a great tool to have around if for some reason you cannot use your apps in full-screen mode. The utility quickly applies a dark mask on top of your screen and allows you to see only a particular area of the screen.
