*****************************************************************
Savervisor is a Screen Saver and Wall Paper Manager. It provides
following functions:
- It appears as an icon that allows you launch a screen saver
instantly by a single click of RIGHT mouse button. Note: You
have to select a saver in Savervisor's setup screen in order
to have Savervisor launch when clicking at its icon with RIGHT
mouse button.
- It can be run in a INVISIBLE mode. With this great feature,
you can just put it into Windows Startup group in Program
Manager and forget it: It will take care all the management
tasks while you never realize it is working for you!
- It allows you specify the sensitive areas where you can click
the RIGHT mouse button to launch a saver instantly.
- It provide saver scheduling capability. That is, it allows
you specify what saver to be activate at a specified hour
through a week. It also allows you switch savers through
all the savers in your Windows directory and specify switchng
period.
- It can be set to "Always on top" to increase your
accessibility to its features.
- It can display(illustrate) all the screen savers in your
Windows directory in different styles(ONCE, CIRCLE, and RANDOM).
- It works as the saver section of Windows Desktop
allowing you select, setup, and test a screen saver from
within its setup screen.
- It provides a very strong wall paper management capability.
First, it allows you to specify any BMP files as your
Wallpaper from anywhere of your file system(including hard,
network, and CD drives) in a particular hour through a week.
Secondly, it allows you schedule BMP files as your
Wallpaper by specifying switching period through your
file system.
Finally, it can "walk" you through the entire file system
(including hard, network, and CD drives). That is, it
displays all the BMP files in your file system one after
another as wall paper - You can see exactly how the BMP file
looks as a Wallpaper on your screen instead of a single BMP
image(specially, when Tile function is set). You can choose
from either automatic or clicking to switch images when BMP is
illustrated.
- It also provides some other function such as tile setting.
How to use Savervisor:
- There are at least three ways to use it:
1). Always running and INVISIBLE. You can set its running
mode into INVISIBLE and put it into Startup group of
Windows Program Manager so that Savervisor is launched
automatically when you start your Windows. In this way,
Savervisor will work in background - You will never see
it while it is working for you: carrying out all the tasks
according to you Saver schedule and Wallpaper
schedule, launching savers instantly when you click the
RIGHT mouse button at the area you specify.
2). Always running but visible. In this way, you can access
setup screen of Savervisor by a double click at its
running icon#. For easy access, you can set it ALWAYS ON TOP.
3). Use it to setup you wall paper or select a screen saver
and turn it off after setup.
- After Launching Savervisor from Program Manager, You will see
an animation icon at the top left corner of your screen if
it is set to visible mode. Note: But you will see nothing
if it is set to INVISIBLE mode. In this case, You can
launch Savervisor one more time if you like to bring up
its setup screen in order to turn it into visible mode or
change setting of Savervisor. After you launch it second
time, the running icon will appear so that you can double
click at it to bring up the setup screen.
- To access Savervisor's setup screen, you need to double
click at the running icon.
- You must bring up the setup screen of Savervisor in order
to turn it off.
- Clicking the RIGHT mouse button on the Savervisor icon or
any sensitive areas that you specify will enable the
current screen saver in Windows Desktop and selecting any
screen saver in the setup screen of Savervisor has the some
effect of selecting a saver in Windows Desktop.
Registration information is available in the setup screen of this program.
