[Ql-Users] QPC2 v3.40 Beta 2
Surprise! It only took 6 years, but finally there is another official beta of QPC ;-) Don't hesitate because it's called a beta, it's very stable, I only want people to test the new keyboard driver first before calling it a release. It includes the latest SMSQ/E v3.16. New features: - Added new keyboard driver that doesn't rely on DirectX anymore. DirectX support in Windows became worse and worse over the years, so now QPC can use the Windows keyboard driver. Much work has been but into this feature to be as compatible as possible, so I hope it works for all countries and that even KEYROW continues to make some sense. SMSQ/E keyboard tables like the ones created by Clavier will NOT work with this driver, but the old driver is still in there, just select SMSQ/E as the keyboard driver in the configuration dialog. - Basic support for floppy disc images. Images can be configured on boot but currently not changed afterwards. - Various bug fixes including a probably more stable screen driver. - Some CPU fixes thanks to George Gwilt. While I'm at it, does anybody still use the fullscreen mode? I'm considering moving away from DirectX completely, which would also get rid of native full screen mode. But in times of LCDs it's probably not that important anymore anyway.

Great news! I'm on vacation and will only be able to test it when I'm back home. BTW: Did you add suspend emulation when minimized (good for all notebook users when using ql programs which do not have good idle handling) and save and reuse last screen position (Jochen's wish)?

Although SHFT/CTRL/F12 (plus the fn key on my Apple Mac) sets full screen for v3.34 beta it has no effect on 3.40 beta 2. Has full screen already been disallowed?

Hi Marcel I do use full screen most of the time. Mostly on my note pad, since it does not waste screen space. Great work.

Re: [Ql-Users] QPC2 v3.40 Beta 2
I don't use full-screen mode at all - because I can't get that to work properly on MacParallels anyways. I do use a maximized window, however - Doesn't make much difference.

Thank you, Marcel! Yep - I use full-screen most of the time on my laptop. Martyn Hill On 10/07/2013 14:18, Marcel Kilgus wrote: Surprise!
