wrong version number?
« on: March 25, 2005, 04:28 PM »
 :huh: The download link says "ProcessTamer v1.03.03" but the executable's properties say it is File Version 1.0.0.2 and Product Version 1, 0, 0, 1.

hi dv,

thanks for the report.
i'm afraid i am a bit lax in updating the internal version numbers of my programs;
if you right click the icon in the system tray and select "about" you should see it say "1.03.03".

i will try to be better about updating the internal version numbering in the future.

btw i expect to release a new version of process tamer next week, with ability to configure some options via a nice gui, ability to disable balloon tips, and a subtle icon change that will help you identify when a process is being "tamed"

I'm looking forward to the new version, especially your #1 priority of disabling the tooltip balloon.

I run my desktop with the taskbar moved to the left edge.  My taskbar is fairly large, so I've set it to auto-hide.  The balloon causes the taskbar to unhide and block out whatever program I'm running that is maximized (such as Visual Studio or Word).  I suppose some other ideas for the balloon would be:
- display it for only 1 second
- only display it during mouse-over

Nice utility.  Thanks.

well that certainly does sounds annoying.
the option to disable the balloon will be #1 thing added next week.
