Schmoove Posted October 13, 2004 Author Share Posted October 13, 2004 thanks for the great work schmoove. One thing I noticed, my display is 1600X1200 and when i place the monitor all the way to the top right log out and back in again the monitor moves over to the left about 100-200 pixel or so. It won't stay close to the edge where i leave it 584725659[/snapback] Did you check the option "Remember monitor position"on the preferences tab?

LeCastor Posted October 18, 2004 Share Posted October 18, 2004 Great tool ! But there's some bugs (dunno if they were already said, sorry) : - When launching Battery Monitoring, it instantly eats 15 Mb of RAM. I then reduce all active windows (Window Key + D), then double-click its icon in the tray, then the memory usage is reduced to 1.8 Mb - When clicking on the dektop, the metter disappears...

If you click on it it will release it though. For now... just don't move it around too much ;) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/212463-battery-monitornet/page/8/#findComment-584765405 Share on other sites More sharing options...

colordeficiency Posted October 31, 2004 Share Posted October 31, 2004 Some issues, when I Hide Monitor it still appears the next time I ran it (a reboot). Anyway to let it stay hidden, as the system tray is good enough. Another, how do I hide the one that's with XP beside using the "Customize Notification" to hide it. In the Power Meter I don't see an option to not show the meter. Thanks for the proggy and advices. EDIT: The always show meter in the Power Meter options is already unchecked and the meter still load.

Ritalin Posted November 2, 2004 Share Posted November 2, 2004 Hmm so no plans for updates/new skins? This really is an amazing program. If not, any alternative programs that are similar?

Ritalin 584850300[/snapback] In previous posts here... schmoove said he's been too busy, so he will probably start working on things when he is no longer busy again. It is a great application already, I've been using it since it was released and it is great :) so I can't complain..

Schmoove Posted November 4, 2004 Author Share Posted November 4, 2004 Look I work all day (7:00 to 18:30, including travelling). I just moved and my appartment is a mess still. I haven't hooked up my PC yet (writing this from work) and don't even have internet (yet) at home because of moving. So.... don't expect anything soon. Later when I got everything sorted out I will probably pick it up again, though I can't really say when that is. @Ritalin: About the skins. The format is very basic. Just a couple of PNG files and an XML file which needs no explanation. Anyone can freely make skins. So if you want more skins you can either make it yourself or ask someone to make it for you. Again sorry for the lack of updates, but I just can't work on it at the moment..... my apologies.

ramitisb Posted November 20, 2004 Share Posted November 20, 2004 Awesome software, jsut one thing though. If I drag the monitor over the taskbar and leave it there, when I click on the task bar it dissapears, (hides behind it I think). Hoping for a fix for taht.

Schmoove Posted December 25, 2004 Author Share Posted December 25, 2004 I have a few days off next week and then I will release the version I have on my pc right now. It has some small bugfixes. That will be the last version, since I started making a fancy virtual desktop manager. Therefore I don't have time to continue this... besides I don't see the need as it already does what it was supposed to do and it does it fine.
