Version 1.1.1 is here!
ChangeLog:
V1.1.1 Cheers
or less is more
c - the way the programm centers on the screen, should avoid placement behind taskbar
on 800x600
c - Interface size reduced again
c - Toyed 'round a bit more with the AboutDialog
c - the programm Icon, no artwork here, just to seperate it better from InstantCopy
so distinguishing them if e.g. on desktop will be a lot easier
a - another piece of art
seriously, just an own icon for .ihs files
a - another check to determin correct installation of InstantCopy!
It came to my attention that Pinnacles Installer only writes your CDKey to
HKEY_CURRENT_USER (even when choosing installation for all users!), that also might
be the solution for most of the people who cant get the update to apply!
If using a MultiUserSystem you need to install the update under the same account
you initialy installed the Retail!
a - a verification that the settings have been written to the registry correctly
when you set them
a - .ihs filetypeassosiation, now you can simply double click .ihs files to open them
in InstantCopy (Hidden-) Settings Editor
a - instance control, only one copy of InstantCopy (Hidden-) Settings Editor will be
running, needed for .ihs file support, else you might end up with a bunch of instances
a - a button to start InstantCopy right out of InstantCopy (Hidden-) Settings Editor
a - Configuration to Systemmenu & a Configuration Dialog to set a few Settings for
InstantCopy (Hidden-) Settings Editor itself!
Just a few simple settings to avoid nagging the user with unwanted featurs
* Check .ihs File-Association on programmstart
disable if you dont want it (obvious
* Check Registrationstatus
diable to suppress the check & warning for not present CDKey (see above)
* Force smaller Interface even on high Resolutions
always use the 800x600 Interface ignoring actual screen resolution
(takes effect the next time you start InstantCopy (Hidden-) Settings Editor)
* Confirm succesful loading / saving of the settings
disable to suppress messages after succesful load/save (only errors get reported)
* Confirm succesful writting to the Registry
disable to suppress message after succesful setting the RegistryTweaks
* Automaticaly set settings after loading
directly submit the settings to the registry after loading from file
* Automaticaly set Default / Recommended settings
directly submit the settings to the registry after clicking Default / Recommended
Basicly making it a single click operation (if you're as lazy as me
* Reset FirstRecommendedClick-Flag
For those of you (if any
who want to read my bulls**t on the recommended settings
more then once
a - my own sliders, far from perfect, mostly some event probs with doubleclick events (well
it's just VB) , but they suffice their purpose! Controling them is just the same as with
those from commoncontrols, except direct positioning is handled far more suited.
r - dumped the comdlg32.ocx, going native!
r - dumped the mscomctl.ocx, replaced sliders by scrollbars, don't look as good, but offer the
same functionality! no more :
"Component '********.ocx' or one of its dependencies not correctly registered" messages!
now all you need really are the VB6Runtimes!
r - dumped the scrollbars again, they were to ugly and more important to unclearly 'cause they
had diffrent thumb sizes caused by the diffrent scales and didnt match the progress values
--------------------------------------------------------
hope this will be useful for some!
