Final questions:

1. To make it more mac like I changed text size to 0, as  dont think the real panther has text. If not can someone with panther verify what font it is, bold?, and what size. Also I set mag to 10.

Real panther display the app name on mouse over. Except that the image is turned to grayscale. :)

Thanks for you comments :)

Do you know the font type, mode, size and colour?

What about your rectangle? Does it exist in the real osx?

How do we go about making this similar to real panther,... come on people.

#43122

Ok, there seems to be a way to fix the "reminant shadows" problem with Yz, but what about WinFX?!?! Does anyone know how to fix this?!

#43140

Well

People everybody is asking something about Exposé, here you are an URL

where you can download a .mov file and have a look. it is the Exposé

in action! you can press in the mov file the F9,F10 and f11 and see what happen!

Thank you, but the font question still needs to be addressed at the moment.

I don't know the font, but in real OSX, the image is covered in gray, and the text rectangle has round edges and the text can come out of the screenshot window.

OMG this release is so much better! Thank you thank you thank you siwu!!!!!!

May we sing your praises as a developer!!!!

I like how the RGB values can be adjusted, as can everything else through a quick .ini edit - very nice. Do you have any plans to incorporate a Control Panel dialog (with maybe a RGB color picker??? :lol: )

Thank you very much for this application - Its one of the very few apps Ive dropped in my start folder.

congratulations, siwu! this is the best and most useful software ported from macos.

i use a dock as my shell so i disabled explorer and i have no desktop with icons. when i use iEx without 'desktop' the windows will leave a print on the screen under the thumbnails of iEx. the screen corner activation works only when i maximize a window. iEx doesn't work properly without an environment that covers the screen (?!)

and i would like to re-arrange ethernet's post:

I usually have many open windows at one time...

...but the app still doesn't keep them (thumbnail) all within my screen environment.

I guess there is no way for it to truly resize automatically... according to screen size, resolution?

#43331

umm try using explorer? It only makes sense

#43550

but i don't need explorer - i use other filemanager, i use alt+tab to switch apps so i don't need taskbar. i don't use start menu and system tray.

i don't click icons - i rather work with a hotkey manager and run programs with shortcuts (keyboard buttons).

explorer would be a waste of memory on my computer. totally useless - i recommend everybody: kill explorer

#43637

Great app siwu!

Ok, I'm curious. Is it possible to make it look exactly the same as the real Expose? I mean with the smooth animation and all. Just a thought.

No because the Mouse Hooking works only with an explorer. Because when you move the mouse, it always go into a window (either the desktop window or a application window). That how the screen corner activation works. When the mouse moove in a window, iEx gets the current mouse position and see if it's a corner of your screen.

As for the resolution thing, currently, the screenshot windows size is set to 300 or less in height. And a screenshot window cannot appear outside of your screen. (Cause iEx check for the resolution).

I plan to implement an auto resize feature in 0.3, which would resize depending of the screen res and the window number.

Finally, for the "window print". Well, after hiding all the windows, iEx redraw the entire desktop to erase those prints. I'll see if I can improve that feature.

My only issue with this program is that the F9 feature is a little slower than norm, even on my comp at work (P4 2.8 ghz / 2gb ram)

#43710

siwu, are you sure it won't work correctly without explorer or any shell replacement?
