I'm just teasing slightly Cliff. I think you weren't the only one to comment on that 'bug', but, to be honest, if several people hadn't mentioned it I would never have known that the roots weren't just too small to be seen. (And the same - errr fault - seems to be true of the plants in front of the left hand rock in that bottom left cluster.) Comes of me not keeping actual live fish, I suppose.

"Gold" fish? yes.

And Moors. And many others. We are having al ot of fun building these guys.

Every single aspect of the product is getting better every day. We are doing it in passes. The movement and the Rock got better over teh past couple of days. We added the new Goldfish "Cali" and the BG colours just changed.

More powerful UI is coming soon too, which will trickle down to MA as well, like the abilityt to change the top and bottom BG...and the ability to change tanks.

This sounds better and better. I have sent links to everyone in my address book. Of course several of us already own the Marine aquarium.

Good things to look forward to!

Also, is there any chance of getting that light dappling on the fish and the plants? That would make it look absolutely fantastic!

Yes. To your question, and the one above it.
We have already built in the infrastructure to handle multiple tanks.

I observe these things:
when I manually start the MA2 and than windowed it, the GA will not start as a screensaver.
Is there a way to implement this also for another programs like AquaReal screensaver?
It would be nice to have a combo list with programs that if they are started to not allow starting GA as screensaver.

I’m not exactly clear on what you are asking. I think you are saying you LIKE the fact that when you manually start ScreenSaver X, you don’t want your default screensaver Y to engage. I’m a little thick so use one syllable words.

Oh, you're a little think alright, Ricky...

I think Memilm means that running one of the Jim Sachs/Prolific SS' in windowed mode, the current (JS/P) SS will not kick in. The asking part is about whether or not it's possible to have the system understand that it shouldn't launch said SS if AR is running in a window.

OK, not so many monosyllables there, – but look! A whole bunch of TLAs

Melilm would love it if he could add a list of programs to MA or GA that would be prevented from opening when MA or GA is running.

Hey do you mean with "multiple tanks" different backgrounds for the goldfishaquarium or do you mean running goldfish or marine aquarium randomely?

Tiny Turtle and Feldon have right with what I ment.
While GA will not be started as a screensaver(GA is set as default screensaver and will be started from OS at specified delay) when MA2 is running in window, I would like to know if this can be implement for AR too.

memilm,

As Reichart says, Aqua Real has nothing to do with our forum or the people that are working on things here. We do have a comments place in the Other Screensavers section, but thats about it.

So by that we should assume that it is not Memilm's GA that relises a different JS/PP SS is running and decides not to launch but rather that the JS/PP SS already launched is sending out some sort of signal that other SS' detect and keep from starting?

The other way around would make more sense (to me) and would also (perhaps) make it possible for PP to design GA and other SSs to detect an open AR window. If they would want to do this is a whole different ballgame...
