—————————————————————————-
[!] The overall speed is slightly increased.
[+] Mouse: Now the system-wide mouse input processing can be disabled completely
by turning off all the mouse hook-dependent features:
– Mouse > Actions > Quick window settings
– Mouse > Drag and Scroll > Make the entire window area responsive to
dragging/sizing
– Mouse > Drag and Scroll > Scroll inactive windows with the mouse wheel
– Mouse > Drag and Scroll > Drag the mouse to scroll windows (Hand tool)
– Mouse > Multiple Monitors > Tight monitor boundaries
– Mouse > Multiple Monitors > Wrap the desktop
– Multiple Monitors > Screen Saver > Save Idle Screens > Start
automatically when a monitor remains idle for
This can be useful if you do not need those features and have any problems
with the input processing (delays, mouse stuttering, overall performance
degradation, etc.).
Turning all those features off tells Actual Window Manager not to install
a new (or remove the existing) system mouse hook. Turning any of them on
keeps the system mouse hook on and operational.
[+] Virtual Desktops: Now the “Show Expose task switcher” hotkey displays
the Virtual Desktops Expose switcher instead of a plain Expose switcher,
if the Virtual Desktops facility is active.
[*] Window Actions: Now certain controls in the Quick Settings dialog can be
quickly activated by pressing an appropriate Alt- keyboard shortcut.
[*] Hotkeys: Now, if Actual Window Manager is paused, only two its hotkeys
remain available: “Configure” (Win-C by default) and “Pause/resume”
(Ctrl-Shift-Alt-Num- by default).
[-] Actual Taskbar, Windows 10+: The following Light visual theme
incompatibilities have been fixed:
– in Windows 10+, taskbar toolbar items were white
– in Windows 11 22H2+, system tray icons, like Network/Sound/Battery,
were white
[-] Title Buttons, Vista+: In some rare cases, extra buttons could prevent
the main app window from receiving input focus.
[-] Easy Window Dragging/Sizing: Once enabled, the feature remained active
even if it was disabled in the Configuration window – until
Actual Window Manager complete reloading (i.e. exiting and
starting again).
[-] Window Layout: In some cases, fast sequential display configuration
transitions could be handled improperly.
