Idle Time Edit

Idle Time Edit is a small software application developed specifically for helping you customize several Windows screensavers, namely Bubbles, Aurora, Mystify, and Ribbons. The tool is compatible with Windows Vista and 7.

You can store the utility on pen drives or other portable devices so you can carry it with you all the time. Plus, you can gain access to its interface by running the executable file because you do not have to go through an installation process. You may run the program directly from the storage device.

Idle Time Edit sports a multi-tabbed environment for helping you quickly switch between the configuration settings implemented for each screensaver. There’s no support for a help manual so you need to experiment a little bit with the dedicated parameters in order to understand how the tool works.

The application offers you the possibility to set up the Bubbles screensaver by applying shadow effects, showing metal bubbles, making the background transparent, and adjusting the color changing speed.

What’s more, you can make the program show a few or many bubbles, adjust the size of the bubbles with the aid of the built-in slider, as well as enable the multi-monitor support.

When it comes to personalizing the Aurora screensaver, you are allowed to tweak the amplitude, span multiple monitors, set up the speed, as well as choose between several brightness modes (bright, dim, or default).

The Mystify screensaver can be tweaked in terms of number of lines (10, 50, 100, or default value) and line width (super thin, super thick, cool, or default). Last but not least, Ribbons screensaver customization options allow you to set the number of ribbons, adjust the width of the ribbons, blur ribbons away before drawing another one, and turn on the multi-monitor support.

To sum things up, Idle Time Edit comes packed with several handy and smart features for helping you personalize Windows screensavers. It can be tweaked by rookies and professionals alike.
