Crystal Checkbox Beta 7c
 

Jim,

If I open the screen saver settings window from the "Settings" button in Windows Vista (see attached screenshot) I get an error whenever I check or uncheck "Show Crystal" in the settings window. I receive a: "Marine Aquarium beta 7 has stopped working" message whenever I click the checkbox.

However if I first start the screen saver running and then hit the space bar to bring up settings the "Show Crystal" checkbox works perfectly.

I don't think it will matter, but I'm on Windows Vista 64bit.

A similar thing is happening here. - After I 'Install' MA3, and then go to: Display Properties/Screen Saver/SSMA3/Settings, - the Show Crystal check box does not work. - I don't get an error message, it just doesn't work, - and the Program Setting panel disappears! - (Without changing the check box state).

The Show Crystal check box from within MA3, (by pressing the Spacebar), still works as normal.

.... I'm using Win2k SP4.


btw. - I like the A·Q·U·A·R·I·U·M... ;)

I had never actually tried it from the Display Properties sheet. I'll look into it.

I just tried it from the display properties I had the same problem. I am using windows xp pro. I had never tried it before from the display properties

Try Beta7d. I was unable to duplicate this bug on any of my machines, but I only have Vista Home, not Vista Pro. Anyway, I changed some coding around, and the bug might be fixed.

Success! - bug fixed with Win2kPro. - It also now shows, (or not!), in the miniature scene on the Screen Saver panel!

Now if it just works in Vista64...

Fixed!
 

Jim,

Yep, you quashed it! Vista 64 and no error at all.

Thanks,

Justin

Hooray!
