Animation when window loses focus

Post by cirrostratus »

Hello,

I come with a humble suggestion/request, with selfish reasons to fit my own personal setup. Cap in hand, I ask if maybe it would be possible for the running animation in the Windows version of Yowindow to not pause when the application loses focus. Or to have the option, for those that fear the CPU usage.
I am running Yowindow on a PC with two screens. The first screen runs Windows Media center, so I can watch TV. The second monitor has Yowindow running with some rainmeter skins over the top, in place of the yowindow details.
The problem is, in order to control windows media center, yowindow loses focus and even though the screen updates periodically, I'm missing out on the gorgeous animations. Hopefully it wouldn't be too hard to keep yowindow in focus when using other applications? I've tried setting affinity and priority to no avail.

I'll slink away from your presence now, wringing my hands in hope and obeissance.

Cheers

Hi, probably we will add this option in the future.
Get YoWindow weather app for your phone or tablet.

Oh thankyou, it's good to know you'll be thinking about it. I really appreciate it and I'll wait patiently with my fingers crossed.
