Profiles store completely different workspace configurations. Each profile has its own set of workspaces, positions, sizes, and monitor assignments.

Ideal when you use different cockpit setups for different products — e.g., one profile for CS2, another for CRICKET, another for NBA.

Click Sequence

Define automated mouse clicks that run after the app launches. Each click has a screen position (X, Y) and delay in ms. Use Pick to select a position by clicking anywhere on screen.

Useful for automating post-launch steps — like clicking "Play" in a game or dismissing a startup dialog.

Click Layout on any card to open a fullscreen overlay on the target monitor.

  • Drag the rectangle to set window position
  • Resize by dragging edges or corners
  • Switch Monitor to move workspace to another screen
  • Click Save to confirm or Esc to cancel

09Reordering Workspaces

Drag to Reorder
Drag & DropClick-hold any card, drag up/down
  1. Click and hold any card — cursor changes to a grab hand
  2. Drag up or down — a ghost preview follows your cursor
  3. Release to drop at the new position

Card order determines the launch sequence for Launch All. Top cards launch first.

10Launching

Launch All

Click Launch All in the footer to launch every visible workspace sequentially. Each app gets time to start before the next one. The delay is configurable in Settings.

Launch Single

Click the green Launch button on any card to launch just that workspace at its saved position.

Note: If an app fails to launch, click the pencil icon to verify the path. For web workspaces, ensure the URL starts with http:// or https://.

13Browser Extension

MCK includes an optional browser extension for advanced web workspace control:

  • Open web workspaces at exact screen positions
  • Control zoom and audio volume per workspace
  • Monitors whether other required extensions are loaded
  • Communication via local WebSocket connection

Install from Settings → click Install next to Browser Extension. A green dot indicates the extension is connected.

14Tips & Tricks

  • Just started your PC? Wait 1–2 minutes before launching all windows. This gives startup applications time to finish loading, resulting in smoother window placement
  • Window not loading correctly? When launching many windows at once, some may not open properly or extensions may fail to load. Close the affected window and reopen it individually
  • Right-click a monitor pill to customize its color
  • Hover over a monitor pill to flash a highlight on the physical screen
  • Drag cards to set the launch order for Launch All
  • Use profiles to maintain different setups (gaming, work, streaming)
  • Click sequences can automate post-launch actions
  • App Mode for web workspaces hides the browser toolbar
  • Clear Cache Raiden only — clears Raiden cache
  • Each workspace remembers its position per monitor
  • Web workspaces work best with the browser extension
  • Background Only runs apps without a visible window
