Wallpaper Cycler: Bug Fixes and New Features
The following new features have been implemented in Wallpaper Cycler:
- New functionality added to the image preview window, the window that appears when you press the spacebar when an image is selected in the main window of Wallpaper Cycler:
- The preview window now allows you to use the left and right keys to move through the images in that category or search folder.
- A small (optional) help text is displayed in the preview window.
- Information of the image being previewed can optionally be shown on the preview.
- The tray menu now contains a “Tools > Find Non-Existing Wallpapers…” item.
- When a new update has been downloaded, WPC will now ask you if you want to run it immediately.
- The “Check for updates” feature will now calculate a checksum of the downloaded file to see if it was downloaded correctly.
- Text objects in layouts can now be linked to a wallpaper object in your layout. This allows you to use the %wallpapername% and other commands to display information about the wallpaper being shown in the linked wallpaper object.
I also made the following bug fixes for Wallpaper Cycler:
- The tree on the left of the main window was recreated every time you changed/added/deleted a category resulting in quite anoying visual flickering. This has been fixed now and the tree almost never flickers anymore.
- When running the trial version, when starting a new WCL file and then exiting Wallpaper Cycler, no question was asked whether to save the file or not.
- Increased the contrast a little bit of the Wallpaper Cycler Vista gadget.
- The Wallpaper Cycler Vista gadget didn’t display correctly when Vista was running in high DPI mode.
