Will it work for the other screensavers?

I would like the Aurora!

Doesnt work with RTM?

I dont know...i am still downloading my RTM from connect (Beta tester, got has a gift from Good Microsoft..(Vista bussiness)!!)

And it also works for Aurora...i thing we can start using /p65552 with the screensaver...

If you dont like this..use Alt+F4 to close this...or use Flpi3d to change back to your desktop..

Yup..works fine! You lose your desktop icons though, and it steals focus from time to time...but it's still cool, none the less.

Do all know how to create boot config to XP..bcos i was using dual boot, but i just installed vista rc1 again, but my xp boot is lost(since i formatted c:\ using vista setup)..

Is there anyway i can boot into XP..bcos, i am using it has my devlopment machine!!

It is indeed very cool! like Long said though not motion desktop, as the screensaver is on the taskbar, its just a screensaver that doesnt turn itself off when your mouse moves and its also not in the foreground. I like :D

ssbranded.scr is quite good, but it sure does seem to lag the desktop!

I know that this is just a screensaver in the desktop...but i named it so to grab the attention..anyhow i am looking for the real motion desktop soon in jan 30th 2007 retail demonstration

This is not new: http://www.istartedsomething.com/20061004/...desktop-aurora/ (October 4th, 2006)

This is not Motion Desktop. This is simply screensavers on the desktop.

gee no kidding.

@ guruparan Way to knowingly make an inaccurate title just to get attention.

just wait for the real motion desktop, it will look nothing like this.

It doesnt work very good on RTM it still hides desktop shortcuts and taskbar, to top it off it keeps a command prompt window icon showing all the time on your taskbar.

FOR YOUR INFORMATION:

THERE IS A MOTION DESKTOP

MS IS WORKING WITH SOME PARTNERS (like startdock etc)

"Something very very cool but unannounced

We are also working on something very very cool in partnership with Microsoft but can't yet publicly discuss"..

check out at

http://www.wincustomize.com/articles.aspx?AID=136100

I thought someone will inform this...but nobody did!

So it will be available for Ultimate users as special downloads..

Of course it will work with RTM, this is how the desktop control applet does it's previews, it passes the handle of the preview screen as the /p parameter to the screensaver, pass it another handle (e.g. the desktop's) and it will draw there.

And the speed will depend on the screensaver, you can't make a blanket statement that there's no performance decrease as every screensaver is different

Although /p65770 doesn't work. you should try the bubbles screen saver. Though you can't use the desktop, it's still pretty damn amusing to see the bubbles floating around the desktop.

Though the bubbles seem come in, indefinitely. Probably not a good idea anyway.

    • I did think about a Echo show once and it would be useful to see what my cameras see. But my brother got one and I changed my mind. Adverts and not really worth the price just to see my cameras. I have a load of dots and a Echo Gen 4, they will do.
    • I asking where you are from or live, because if you don't live in the U.K, why are you so bothered? That is another reason I voted out, E.U and people poking their noses in where they should not be. Sadly we still have it, Trump, and his cronies. Putin as well and no doubt others. It makes no difference what we believe, if we made the right choice or not, we are out. As I said to someone when the news first broke we have voted out, we just need to make the best of it. I have no problems with closer ties to the E.U, we still need to trade. Just don't want to be in their club.
    • So you think I voted out because i am anti-immigrant. I am fed up with those that come over and think that we owe them something. The ones that are at the moment coming over from France where they are already in a safe country because they think and no doubt will get everything chucked at them. While people who were born and bred here get very little. I have nothing against as i have said before those that come here and work. In fact I know full well that our NHS would struggle without them. I do have a problem with those that come over here and try to push their religion and their way of life onto us. My reasons for voting out was because of what the E.U is and is also becoming. I did not agree with Freedom of movement, not because I don't want people over here, but because people need to be checked before being allowed to cross borders and that goes both ways. But my main thing was because the E.U is becoming if not already a united states of Europe. The only reason countries like Poland and Romania joined was because they had no money. When my partner left Poland, she had nothing, Poland had nothing, that is why she left. Wanted to learn something and earn a living. The E.U would have us back according to Michel Barnier. https://www.euronews.com/my-eu...ator-barnier-tells-euronews Why are you so scared to say what country you are in?
    • I wonder what that line really meant...
    • draw.io Desktop 30.2.6 by Razvan Serea draw.io desktop is a downloadable security-first diagramming application that runs on Windows, MacOS and Linux. Creating diagrams in the desktop app doesn’t need an internet connection. This is useful when you are disconnected or when you must create diagrams in a highly secure environment, where data protection is of the utmost importance. When you use the draw.io desktop app, your diagrams will be stored on your local device. Because this is a stand-alone application, also designed to run offline, there are no interfaces to cloud storage platforms available. Of course, you can still store your diagrams in folders that are synchronised to your cloud storage if you wish. Easy-to-use diagram editor The draw.io apps work just like the office and drawing tools you are used to using. Drag and drop shapes from the shape libraries and drag to draw connectors between them. Drag connectors to add waypoints and set a precise shape and position, or let them reroute automatically. Double click and start typing to add a label to anything. Create tables and swimlane flows with a familiar tool. Style shapes and connectors with customisable palettes, sketch options, fonts and text formatting tools. Search for shapes, including in open-source icon libraries. Use our vast libraries of shapes and templates, organised into logical categories, to create a range of diagrams and infographics.
