DimScreen
« on: September 11, 2009, 03:01 PM »
This program is exactly what I'm looking for... except it only appears to work on the primary monitor in a multi-monitor set-up.

Any chance it could be patched to allow the user to choose which monitor is dimmed?

Cheers,

Kashkin.

My security program PrevX signaled this as containing malware (a trojan) so to be sure I uninstalled it. It was downloaded direct from DonationCoder. Is PrevX wrong or ... :-/

cross post:

Prevx is wrong, very wrong.  This is a false positive that is frequently triggered on developers using the Autohotkey programming langauge, and it's driving programmers crazy.

Is it possible to make som improvements in Dimscreen.
The taskbar, ballontips and preview is not dimmed.
Is there a small cost to do this adjustsments.
