    Windows 7 (Adding Tex to the Desktop)

    I apologise in advance if this is in the wrong forum section or I missed something glaringly obvious.

    I am currently using Windows 7 with a rotating background on dual monitors. What I would like to do is add text to the desktop with an alignment to the right. For example:

    Films

    1Film 1Film 1
    Film 2Film 2Film 2Film 2Film 2
    Film 3Film 3Film 3Film 3


    It would be aligned to the right of my right screen, above the taskbar.

    I'm also aware of "Sticky Notes" but it's not exactly what I would like, I have searched around on google and youtube for ways of doing this but I'm not comfortable with most of them.

    Thank you in advance for any help/advice given.


    Edit: Sorry, I forgot the 2nd T in Text in the Title.

    I'm not familiar with this, but maybe Rainmeter can do this?
    There perhaps is an easier way to do it though.

    Yes, Rainmeter can do this. It can get rather complicated though.

    Would something like this (Bottom left hand side) be suitable? Obviously, you can edit the title, fonts, colours and so on, so forth.

    That's what I'm after (except aligned to the right where the weather part is).

    You don't need to spend money on Rainmeter, or atleast - I didn't. I believe the skin I used for that particular Rainmeter note is.. Pileus, for the weather I used Enigma. A quick google search should come up trumps.

    So I would have to download Rainment to be able to use the Pileus skin?

    Yes, Rainmeter is sort of.. a programme that allows you to change the skin, Pileus and Enigma and the different kind of skins you can use with Rainmeter. All of them are free

    Alrighto, I'll give it a bash, thanks.
