Start Thing

Objective Software announces the maintenance release of StartThing 1.0.5. * Version 1.0.5 (98/01/31) - Added a checkbox that activates or deactivates the hot spot corner. - The Launcher Mode now deactivates the standard screen-saver Gestalt selectors 'SAVR'/'SAVC' for running both StartThing and a screen-saver such as AfterDark. StartThing is a very cool, simple and powerful screen-saver. Install the control panel, choose the delay before the saver starts up at idle time and the application to launch. That's it! The application to launch can be a Macromedia Director Projector, a SuperCard project, a Quark-Immedia Presentation, an Applet or any other application... Tips: - You can easily create your own screen saver by choosing the "QuickShow" application (by David Howel) as the startup application. QuickShow is a freeware utility that shows all pictures, jpeg, QuickTime movies, etc. from a folder. - There are also a lot of tools to convert a QuickTime movie into an application.
