Removed memory leak when using xTrashCheckInterval.

Thanks Andymon for the module and the helping pinpoint the root of it!

jDesk-0.75 released by alurcard2
Posted on Thursday 04 February 2010 - 17:02:00 by Andymon
Just in case someone missed his news comment:
Alrighty, I've added a timer to jDesk that checks if the wallpaper has changed every second or so, and updates the background if it has.

You wont get the nice fade in effect that explorer has (at least not yet), but at least it changes

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/51925/LiteStep/jDesk-0.75.zip
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/51925/LiteStep/jDesk-0.75-src.zip

I should probably mention that this will NOT work with Clickonic, icondesk, xdesktop, or any other module of the sort. All of those modules will need to be updated as well.

I know it's a little bit buggy (the wallpaper may seem to change almost instantly sometimes), and there's no command to switch to the next wallpaper (yet), but, meh... that's just the way beta versions are.

Apparently there is a problem with the wallpaper refresh under Win7.
.alur has fixed the problem for jDesk and told me the solution, so here is my try for xDesk.

Once it is confirmend that the problem is gone, i`ll release it officially.

LS-Universe Relaunch!
Posted on Wednesday 30 September 2009 - 17:10:48 by Andymon
Ok, we're back online on 01.10.09.

Due to (many different) community hosting offers we're back online. I was in contact with THC4K from ls-themes.org before the unexpected shutdown and he agreed that he can probably host LS-U when something bad happens. Shortly after the shutdown we have started to restore LS-U.

Thank You - LS-Themes.org!
And another Thank You to all others who offered hosting/domains after the shutdown!


Atm, you can reach LS-Universe under
http://ls-universe.ls-themes.org
and xDocs under
http://xdocs.ls-universe.ls-themes.org

Our separate Themes@LS-U site won't come back, there wasn't enough content and the backup is way too old. ls-themes.org has a better themes area anyway.

And modules.ls-universe.info won't come back, but you can still use the other available NetLoadModule repositories.
  1. *NetLoadModuleSite      "http://www.ls-themes.org/modules/download/"
  2. *NetLoadModuleSite      "http://modules.shellfront.org/"
or
  1. *NetLoadModuleSite      "http://www.ls-universe.ls-themes.org/modules/"

At LS-U all new content (users, forumposts, news, ...) since 06.09.09 are lost, about 2-3 weeks before the shutdown. Some parts are still missing, some parts will come later and probably some links won't work right away (because i have used the full url with ls-universe.info). In case someone finds such a broken link just replace "ls-universe.info" with "ls-universe.ls-themes.org" and it will probably work again.

xDocs is fully restored except for the registered users data, so if someone wants to work on xDocs he must register again.

Otherwise report broken things at LS-U and i will fix it asap.

Spread the word about the new relaunch

xPaintClass-1.0 Update 7 released!
Posted on Sunday 09 August 2009 - 15:41:19 by Andymon
xPaintClass Update 7 with some minor features and some bugfixes.

What's new?
xPaintClass Update 7:
Internal detection of Vista and Win7 (required for DWM features)
MultiMonitor positions (@) support now "a", "b", "c", which refer to the monitor in the "enumerated" order.
  1. labelX a@10

xPaintIcon
Internal apply function supports custom sized icon painting.
xPaint(HTML)Text
...FontClearType supports now "opaque" in addition to "true" and "false".
  1. MyMabelFontClearType "opaque"
If the background behind the text is opaque (alpha value 255, the themer MUST check this), this setting enables correct ClearType text on alphatransparent modules.
xPaintTexture
...TextureAlphaTranslucency BOOL
MagicPink areas will be blurred in the texture (Aero Glass). The module must support it!

Installation:
Personal Usage:
Put xPaintClass-1.0.dll in your LiteStep Folder!
Simply overwrite an eventually existing older version and delete/overwrite an eventually existing xPaintClass-1.0.dll in your Module Folder!
You can afterwards comment NetloadModule lines regarding xPaintClass-1.0 in downloaded themes!

Theme Release Usage:
Load xPaintClass-1.0 before other modules, at least before every module, that makes use of it!
Otherwise the modules won't load on Litestep installations without xPaintClass, making your theme unusable!

Our (NetLoad)Module Archive contains always the newest version named "xpaintclass-1.0.zip".
Maybe the other NetLoadModule sites replace their versions too, but i cannot "force" them.
And naturally you can always find all released versions in our Download Section.

You can download xPaintClass-1.0 Update 7
Download Section
(Manual extraction required!)
NetLoadModule Archive
(Call "!NetUninstallModule xPaintClass-1.0" and copy this zip in your Module Archive folder!)
