Any chance of you leaving up the LE3 download this time? And moving noto a new deviation?

If LE4 is going to be a "different animal", not sure why em3 would find it necessary to remove LE3 (or any of the previous versions). Just in case, don't forget to make a back-up. ;)

I think the Classic (non-glossy) compact is really Luna Element at it's best. This glossy stuff is pretty common, even with mods, imo.

Maybe it would be a good idea to polish version 3 a tad more (like add a solid progress bar to the latest compact classic version), before putting so much time into a completely different version number? It would be the "icing on the cake" for version 3, imo..

Acctually I'm planning to update LE3 and the Classic style a little. Thats why I won't delete it when LE4 is done. They will look pretty different. And it doesn't matter how much you are nagging about the solid progressbar. It won't happen. I can't see why you guys like it so much, block style is so much cooler.

That's your opinion, which means ours don't mean much. Why ask for it? I won't "nag" anymore, in fact, I dumpped LE for something else. Your attitude is starting to spoil your vs. I think the praise is going to your head. Thanks...

I am nice to the people who are nice to me. :) Just because I won't give you a solid progressbar you think I have an attitude problem. :laugh:

I (and other naggers) have always praised your work, obviously you haven't noticed. How quickly we forget. I have even beta tested for you a number of times, and I'm sure you don't remember that either. Anyway, no problem. There are themers like b0se who are willing to go the extra mile for their followers. You obviously are not, even if a number of peeps ask nicely for a mod. :rolleyes: Have a good day..

Maybe a way to get around this little impasse is to let somebody do a solid progressbar mod (or grab the one from the older version of LE3), take a peek at it, and call it the "Official Em3-Approved (But ****py Imitation Of My Work Nonetheless) Solid Progressbar Mod." Then we don't have "unapproved personal mods" floating around (which you seem to hate with a fiery passion) and the people who Really Liked the solid progressbar (I'm another) will be happy. I think the appeal is that it's just a nice little touch of Classic poking through but with a nice modern gradiented flair; the block progressbars were one of the last things about the original MS Luna I didn't like that show up in Element. It also "feels" smoother (on a purely psychological level), especially when you're running a long transfer or download, seeing the bar move over just one little pixel lets you know it's still going, instead of seeing a block every 5 seconds (hey, why is my machine copying that 20 gig directory in 1-second bursts?!) Personally, I've just been using an old version.

      I agree, but that's the popular online opinion about them, so I followed it. I do think they have their point, no matter how combative they sound most of the time.

    • Windows 11's big performance boost is finally available for all

      By TarasBuria · Posted

      Windows 11's big performance boost is finally available for all by Taras Buria Over the last few months, Microsoft has been very busy fixing Windows 11 with features that users have been asking the company for a long time. An upgraded Start menu, the ability to change the taskbar position, new Windows Update features, and plenty more. However, not all changes are visible on the surface. Some exciting upgrades happened under the hood, and one of those upgrades is now available to all Windows 11 users. The so-called "Low Latency Profile" is a special performance mode that aims to make Windows 11 snappier and more responsive. It boosts the processor clock speed to its maximum for a brief moment when rendering user interface elements or launching apps. As such, apps launch faster, and things like the Start menu or quick settings appear on the screen faster, although some are sceptical about it. Microsoft is not sharing many details about the new profile. The official release notes do not even mention it, with Microsoft only saying that the update "accelerates app launch and core shell experiences such as Start menu, Search, and Action Center." Also, you may need to enable it manually, as new features are rolling out gradually. Here is how to do it: Download ViVeTool from GitHub and unpack wherever convenient. Navigate to the folder containing the ViveTool files with the CD command. For example, if you have placed ViveTool in C:\Vive, type CD C:\Vive. Type vivetool /enable /id:58989092 and press Enter. Restart your computer. After restarting your computer, launch Task Manager or any other hardware-monitoring software and check the processor clocks when opening the Start menu, Action Center, and more. Your processor should spike to its highest possible speed and then return to lower clocks. In addition to Low Latency Mode, the June 2026 Patch Tuesday update delivers additional features, such as multi-camera mode for apps (several apps can use a single camera stream), shared Bluetooth audio, improved Task Manager, and more.

      By sphbecker · Posted

      I agree, especially with newer versions of MS Office supporting ODF documents, there isn't even a compatibility argument to be made. It should default to ODF on a clean install, with admin configurable options to make MS Office the default if that is desired.

      Are they on crack at M$? Surely living on an alternative reality? A good dump of mine would run faster down the toilet if I did not flush it. But still looks better than this pile of slop. By the way, did they also comment on what's the next "functionality added"? Maybe you can improve it if you add even more stuff to this vomitware.
