yes, I know. I was trying to say that it will not have any effect if we just have one timer, because it will never be delayed to the next, as there is no next. if we do have animator at 0.01 and pooler at 1.0, with precision of 1.0 then animator would happen just each second. Bad? can be, but I just expect such low precision when powersaving is aggressive, then you couldn't care less about animations. in moderate power savings, for example when laptop is on battery, you could set framerate to 1.0/24.0 and precision to that same value, then you will have no problems (maybe few frame drops/skips). -- Gustavo Sverzut Barbieri http://profusion.mobi embedded systems -------------------------------------- MSN: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Skype: gsbarbieri Mobile: +55 (19) 9225-2202 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ enlightenment-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/enlightenment-devel
