Wallpaper Cycler: Bug Fixes and New Features
The following new features have been implemented in Wallpaper Cycler
- Rendering now happens in a separate thread, not blocking the main GUI thread.
- The rendering thread will be switched to low priority if the rendering was initiated by a timer.
- The rendering thread will stay at normal priority when the user forced WPC to cycle the wallpaper.
- On Windows Vista or later, the rendering thread will use low priority I/O in case the rendering was initiated by a timer.
- The fullscreen preview window now scales the image with the same high quality as when rendered to the desktop. This feature can be disabled to speed up the preview on slower systems. Can be enabled/disabled from the global WPC settings or by pressing Q in the fullscreen preview.
- The uninstaller will no longer remove the license information.
- A new toolbar button to quickly toggle between thumbnail view and details view.
- New option “Cycle once every day and exit at windows logon”.
- The info panel will now allow you to quickly check if a wallpaper is linked to a layout either directly or indirectly through one of its parent categories.
- New option to enable/disable the feature that WPC will automatically select the new wallpaper in the main window when cycling to the next or previous wallpaper.
- You can now rename a layout by slowly double clicking the layout or pressing F2 in the list in the main window of WPC
