I've put it into my code, but updating the version on the website has become a major undertaking now that so many people are involved. So it will have to wait until the next actual revision.
|
When is that likely to be? I've patiently waited many, many months now and the version i just downloaded from the website still doesnt resolve this (basic) issue. Can you perhaps email me a download link?
|
If Serene Screen is not in windowed mode the "Windows + D" key combo exits the program cleanly. That key combination to drop to the desk top has been around for a while too so maybe the remote can send that code to the computer as well as the "Alt+F4" code.
... and maybe not :D |
Royce - I'm still not clear on the remote contol you are using, and what functions it can provide. Am I correct that it can transmit an Alt-F4, but not a right-mouse click?
|
Correct, it can transmit Alt+F4 and I believe backspace. Both of these work on the previous marine aquarium.
ps. The remote is a standard windows media center one. |
I've never seen one, but I'll look it up.
|
Jim, any luck? All i really need the screensaver to do is exit on backspace. I dont think you need to worry too much about the remote i am using.
|
Jim, could you set a registry key that users can modify which will be the key that will cause the Aquarium to exit? Then people can just put the ASCII or Windows Code they want.
|
Yes, that's probably a good way to handle it.
|
Does anyone besides Royce still require ALT_F4 as an exit key?
|
Not me.
|
It is the Windows standard so I vote yes...

Is there some difficulty or down-side with including it? Does it interfere with some other feature or something? |
No, just asking.
|
Sorry to resurect an old thread but I thought it better to do that than create a new repeat one...
... is there any news on this? I want to use it on my Windows 7 x64 Media Center setup but it ignores any presses of the Microsoft Media Center remote control. I have emailed Tech Support again but so far nothing back. TIA, Rich |
Instead of asking, why not just hit Alt-F4 and see? :)
|
Hi, because I cant do Alt-F4 from the Media Center remote (as per the post). However I have found that pressing Clear on it, cancels the screen saver.
Rich |
Result!
|
Wait - you guys asked for exit on Alt-F4 because ESC or Right Button weren't available on whatever weird remote you were using, so I added it to v3.1. What are you asking for now?
|
I thought he was saying he had what he wanted in the first place?
