Tragedy in America

I’d like everyone to take a few moments to think about the events in America. Thank you.

I don’t think this needs a header. I’d like to express my shock at the tragedy in New York and Washington. I really feel for the families involved, and hope that the people who carried this out are brought to justice.

It feels wrong to call them people.

Error with latest dWall

I’ve just received an email saying the the latest version of dWall gives an error when using the right click menu to set desktop icons transparent in WinNT4WS/SP6.

If anyone else is running dWall on NT4 and is having the same problem, or it’s running fine, could you drop me an email to help me fix the problem.

Thanks.

dWall version 0.7

Another new version of dWall hits the streets. The changes in this version are as follows:

  • +You can now set icon colours for each wallpaper. Right click the wallpaper list and click Apply Options…
  • Bug where wallpaper size in relation to the screen was not calculated properly.
  • Made the drop down list for wallpapers longer before it starts to scroll because it was bugging me.

Anyway, there you have it. Hop over to the [dWall pages]https://dx13.co.uk/projects/dwall/ and enjoy.

New dWall - v0.6

As you may have guessed, this is my pet project at the moment. I’ve upgraded it again to version 0.6. This version brings the innovation of Context menus and that’s about it, apart from some bug fixes. The context menus allow you to apply any image file as a wallpaper and add any folder to dWall from it’s right click menu. Have a look in the Options window to enable this feature.

  • Drawing the menus myself. Might add someway of you doing it later.
  • Size aswell as percentage is shown in Smaller tab of options dialog.
  • Enable / disable wallpaper changing timer by the tray menu.
  • Fixed bug whereby deformation checkbox wasn’t taken account of, always seen to be true. Now go get it one the dWall page.
