Hi Folks!
I was just wondering:
I mainly bought the CF-Display because according to the advertisement it supports gaples bargraphs, smooth 1px-Scrolling and so on, but now that I bought one I cannot find any of these functions in CrystalControl! Am I just stupid and didn't find the right buttons or are these features really not implemented???
Love the displays nontheless (got 2 634USB), will get a 633 and a graphic one as soon as I have money again, but still I find this a little disappointing!
@CrystalControl: When is the new version scheduled to be released (I don't want the exact time to put it into my download scheduler, just give me a month and a year or something like that!)
Oh, and even though the software is one of the best I've tried so far I still DO have some feature requests (since there's no plugin-support)
1. Please add inicators for the repeat (for example "R" if repeat is on, " " (blank space) if repeat is off), shuffle (same deal with "S" and status (playing/paused/stoped) for winamp2 in future versions!
2. What would be really cool would be a function to check the status of Trillian Pro (actually for me any ICQ-client would do, but trillian Pro is just great, widely spread and supports plugins as far as I know, so I picked it as an example)
As an example:
One-Character Indicators for active connections (if connected character is displayed, if not it's just a blank space
(I A i M Y)
Number of open chat windows (as integer)
-(I usually have my CRT turned off when I'm not actually working at the computer. with this info I could just close all chat windows prior to turning off the screen and I would know that when my LCD displayed 2 open windows there are 2 new messages waiting for me)
Extremely cool would also be a tag showing the names of the new windows (as comma seperated list or whatever), that way one could instantaniously see who the messages are from
I know this is a lot of work and you guys probably have other stuff to do, too, so take your time and keep up the great work, but it would be nice to see these features implemented into CC at some day
I just can't stop playing with these displays, they are way too cool to be left alone, so I come up with new ideas (new for me!) almost hourly
As I said, love the displays, the software is great, too.
And who was that mumbling about stability-issues? Mine's been running for 2 weeks straight now, with hibernation, standby, extensive CPU-usage in between, it just runs and runs and runs and runs and....
