Thanks for this idea, which I'm already using in my own projects. Unfortunately this doesn't meet the requirements of my colleague. So even if not everybody could use it due to the small number of overlays supported by Microsoft (I wonder why they cannot/do not increase this) having the option to have such an overlay would be welcome! For instance my colleague says on his PC enough overlays would be still available!
