kmccormi 0 Posted January 7, 2005 Report Share Posted January 7, 2005 Okay I would suggest you to copy Siwu_test1.xml into another file. Then open this file and search for this: ... That's it you won't execute the blending effect on the other windows Okay, that seems to have fixed the problem of all windows going invisible, but now they are just big black squares instead of window captures. Any ideas? Thanks for the help siwu. Link to post

nightcrawler1089 0 Posted January 7, 2005 Report Share Posted January 7, 2005 Oh man, this is depressing...it won't work, but it did earlier. When it did work, Yz wasn't getting excluded, and the animations were a bit jumpy. This may be general computer slowness- I've been experiencing it lately. Now, however, it's not working at all.

siwu 0 Posted January 8, 2005 Author Report Share Posted January 8, 2005 Exception Type: Microsoft.DirectX.Direct3D.OutOfVideoMemoryException Hummm, it's weird because Direct3D told that you haven't any video memory left, but at initialization, really weird. Try to delete the SinapseConfig.xml file and run sinapse again. Link to post

[email protected] 0 Posted January 8, 2005 Report Share Posted January 8, 2005 WOW!! That's a great app. Smooth fast animation and great performance, thank you siwu I just miss the fnacy window animation that expire had, and I think that the interface needs a little makeover, but this is all small stuff.... From now on, just Sinapse and Expire in the start up folder :cool: Link to post

UNI0N Jack 0 Posted January 9, 2005 Report Share Posted January 9, 2005 WOW. this is fantastic!My only two gripes are:1) like most other people complaining, i'm having Y'z dock show up on there.2) I'm tempted to not use this program only because it uses a crapload of system resources (~32 mb to be exact. is there any possiblity that resource usage will lessen in upcoming releases? thanks a lot for an otherwise stellar app!

ja450n 0 Posted January 9, 2005 Report Share Posted January 9, 2005 the window screenshots are all black. i noticed that smallwindows is credited, in the plug-in. so i went and downloaded it, and it works fine. why the difference? Link to post

Autumnmist 0 Posted January 9, 2005 Report Share Posted January 9, 2005 Has anyone been able to get Rainlendar to be excluded? I dragged and dropped over my Rainlendar but it's still being exposed. Exclusion works when Rainlendar is set to be "On Desktop" but not if set to be "On Bottom" Link to post
bolero 0 Posted January 10, 2005 Report Share Posted January 10, 2005 holy crap i found out if you right click.. the window in exposed mode rotates in3d.. wow thats neat!so is this using that new 3d engine you've been working on swiu.. umm.. i forget what yo ucalled it.. hehe.-bolero Link to post
Czanchez 0 Posted January 10, 2005 Report Share Posted January 10, 2005 So far i really like it. :cool:dI've notice a weird thing. It might be because I don't know what I'm, doing, or its a bug. When I try and adjust the corner sizes for the right size, every time I deselect the corner it goes down by 1% the left does this two, but only after selling it once.Also, when I ran it first it was on my desktop (mainly because I had no idea if I would keep it) so when I saw that this was cool and i wanted to use it, i moved the folder and the program stopped running. It was looking for a resource that it could not find at the previous location. Why isn't the location "/scripts/Siwu_test1.xml" instead of "C:location of folder on first run/scripts/Siwu_test1.xml" Not really a major problem, but it is a bug.EDIT i just found about the 3dness. Cool!! Oh, maybe this would be neat, not useful, but neat. How about on the right click you control the rotation, so that when you move the mouse the window moves, on release it goes back to normal. It would look cool and be fun to mess around with, but I can't see any practical application to it. Link to post
ZeeZ 0 Posted January 10, 2005 Report Share Posted January 10, 2005 How did you guys exclude Kapsules & Konfabulator widgets ? doesn´t work here... Link to post
musashisama 0 Posted January 10, 2005 Report Share Posted January 10, 2005 I´ve installed in home and... woa! 0.1 and already usable!!!Smooth animations, just amazing and beatifull... i agree that interface should be improved a little, but it´s amazing anyway. Sadly, here in my job didn´t worked (the computer is almost the same as home, only for the video, that is a GeForce 4 MX 4000 here). Got a Crash windows... but nothing comes up when i click "HERE".

Autumnmist 0 Posted January 11, 2005 Report Share Posted January 11, 2005 Been playing around with Sinapse on different computers...sadly on my laptop (1920x1200 resolution, GeForce4 4200 Go), Sinapse really lags too much to be used regularly. On my bf's however (1024x768, GeForce 5200), Sinapse is as smooth as butter. Really really usable. I tested and the vast majority of the difference seems to be attributable to the large resolution difference. When I lower my res to 1024, Sinapse runs smoothly.Is there any way you can improve something so that Sinapse doesn't suffer as dramatically from increased resolutions? (I know obviously it won't be 100% as fast). Link to post

Is there any way you can improve something so that Sinapse doesn't suffer as dramatically from increased resolutions? (I know obviously it won't be 100% as fast). In fact, there is a way to do this, but the graphics won't be as sharp as in the native resolution. The technique is to create let's say a 1024x768 device, and then extend it to 1920x1200. I'll have to look into it though... Link to post
kmccormi 0 Posted January 11, 2005 Report Share Posted January 11, 2005 Actually, most of my problems seem to be resolution-related as well. My laptop is at 1400x1050, but when I decreased it to 1024x768 or even 1280x1024, Sinapse was MUCH smoother. I never knew some of the sliding/rotating animations were even there because I had been using it at 1400x1050. Unfortunately, as much as I love Sinapse, I am not willing to change my resolution just for this one program. I hope that in one of the future versions of Sinapse you find a way to make it compatible with all resolutions, as I really, really love the program. Link to post
blurryeyes 0 Posted January 12, 2005 Report Share Posted January 12, 2005 It works but buggy on my computer, and fantastic effect . I really like it. Thanks you,Siwu. waiting for your next release. -nilyeoj Link to post
