Hmm, that was never my experience. My understanding is that screensavers were designed to *prevent* burn-in on CRTs, not remedy burn-in. I was certainly never able to get a screensaver to "erase" the burn-in from the static elements of WordPerfect 4.1 and Lotus 1-2-3 on my first PC....
radish is probably right that an "all pixels on" plugin would probably be ridiculously easy to write. Until that appears to restore stale pixels a good preventative is the FuzzyTime plugin, which allows the date/time screensaver to drift back and forth across the VFD screen. Unfortunately, I don't think it works with the more elaborate screensavers like WeatherTime. -- aubuti ------------------------------------------------------------------------ aubuti's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2074 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=63882 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
