squint Changelog
What's new in squint 0.6
Dec 4, 2014- Improvements:
- the periodic timer was removed (thanks XDamage & XInput), this brings smoother motions, better performances and less power consumption
- the cursor icon from the source screen is now cloned into the destination screen (instead of drawing a crosshair)
- the window (in fullscreen mode) is now completely hidden
- the window (in window mode) is now resizable
- errors are reported on screen using freedesktop notifications
- the location of the active_window is tracked to ensure that it is in on screen when there is activity on the keyboard
- duplication is stopped when there is a change in the XRandr configuration
- New features:
- an icon in the system tray allows controlling the app at runtime:
- enable/disable duplication
- choose a different source/destination screen
- toggle fullscreen mode
- quit
- screen duplication can be disabled ad startup by using -d (useful for launcing squint at the X session startup)
- it is possible to clone a source screen with a resolution which is larger than the destination screen (the window will slide)
- the refresh rate can be tuned/limited in the command line
- Other changes:
- by default squint uses the primary monitor (as reported by gdk) as the destination screen (instead of choosing the largest screen)
- dropped Gtk2 compatibility
New in squint 0.6 (Feb 14, 2014)
- This version improves ergonomy.
- The window is now fullscreen and raises (or hides) automatically when the pointer enters (or leaves) the duplicated screen.
