What's New in This Release: [ read full changelog ]
· New feature added. If you have a very sensitive mouse that often stops the screensaver even when you don't move it, you will like this feature. Now you can instruct the screensaver to ignore your mouse. It will stop only if you press a key on your keyboard. Furthermore, you can even tell it to ignore the keyboard except the ESC key. Very useful if you don't want your kids messing some documents left open while you are away. See the possible options on the Control page in the screensaver settings.
· New feature added. Now you can limit the CPU load produced by the screensaver. It can be handy if you have some CPU-hungry applications running in the background. Lowering CPU load in screensaver settings will slow down animations, but will provide other applications with required CPU resources when needed. You can adjust the allowed CPU load on the Control page in the screensaver settings.
· Minor improvement. The screensaver UI now supports visual themes in Windows XP. That is, it doesn't look gray and ugly under Windows XP anymore.
· Minor improvement. Now every option in the settings dialog has a context help with a brief explanation. Click the little question mark in the top right corner and then click on the option to read what it's for.
· Minor improvement. The screensaver now has a normal preview visible in Display Properties.
· Minor improvement. The settings dialog has been redesigned. Now when you invoke screensaver settings you will get them immediately. The intermediate dialog has been discarded.
