Interesting.
In this case I do have a screen saver setup - but forgot all about that ...
probably because the power settings turn off the monitors before the screen
saver was being invoked.
I tried to repro a couple of times after receipt of your note - but not able
to. These actions had no adverse effect on the program:
- CTRL-ATL-DEL and just let that screen sit there
- CTRL-ALT-DEL and lock the computer
- let the computer invoke the screen saver (10 minutes)
- force the screen saver to run ("preview")
I did the aforementioned test with both the main WSJT-X window having focus
... as well as the Wide Graph window having focus.
