Aero

   Also found in: Dictionary/thesaurus, Acronyms, Wikipedia 0.01 sec.

Aero

The advanced user interface in Windows Vista. In Vista, the visual experience the user receives depends on the version of Vista and the type of display adapter installed in the computer. Windows Home Basic provides the basic user interface, while the Premium and Business editions display the Aero interface, as long as the display adapter is relatively new and capable. See Windows Vista and Windows Presentation Foundation.

The Flip 3D Feature in Aero
All open applications can be displayed as floating 3D windows and made to rotate. Clicking the window brings it back into 2D form. The desktop also becomes a floating window (at the back in this example). Selecting the desktop minimizes all open applications. See Flip 3D.


The "Glass" Look
The translucent window borders are a new feature in Vista, which is called "Aero Glass."

Above the clustering gasometers three unfamiliar shapes appeared, thin, wallowing bladders that flapped and rolled about, and grew bigger and bigger and rounder and rounder--balloons in course of inflation for the South of England Aero Club's Saturday-afternoon ascent.
