5.2.11 Delay

[ironhead]

I figured I'd give everyone a head's up....

I've had 5.2.11 ready to go for a few days now but unfortunately SourceForge was attacked recently and as a result they are in the process of recovering from that attack. Once SourceForge is completely online again (I hope sometime this week), I will release 5.2.11.

Stay tuned!

Exciting news!
How about a change log so we could know what to expect?

[ironhead]

New:

• Blur effect for Vista and above. Configurable in Style Editor under 'Miscellaneous', provides a frosted glass type affect.
• Aero style menus option added to the emergeWorkspace configuration (for Vista and above only)
• 'Help' menu (add via menu editor or created as part of default menu)

Changed:

• 'Settings' menu re-arranged - about moved to 'Help' menu
• Emerge will no longer bail out if it can't set the Desktop, CommonDesktop, etc. environment variables

Fixed:

• z-order should be correct on startup now

Great update, found the help menu.

I found it rather hard to find out running eD's version if I don't enable Help menu.

Can we have version visible on Configure dialog, for example, instead of "emergeWorkspace Configuration", we have the dialog title as "emergeWorkspace 5.2.11 Configuration"?

[MeToo]

ElTopo, there are so many ways you can check eD's version...

1) Ctrl+Click on any applet and choose About

2) Go to Settings, Launch Editor and see the version of all applets loaded

3) Type CoreAbout in emergeCommand

4) Add a CoreAbout (Internal Command) item anywhere on any menu

5) Set a hotkey to CoreAbout

etc...

[ElTopo]

@MeToo,

Thanks for reply, but
1) Ctrl+Click for "About": this only shows version for that applet, and I cannot click for "core"
2) Launch editor only shows some applets, and, no core
3) and 5) I don't use command/hotkey, I prefer executor
4) looks like adding CoreAbout as a menu item is the only option for me, although generally I try to avoid adding internal commands (they don't have icons, not so pretty in menu bar).

[MeToo]

ElTopo, the core version is usually the same version as the applets (unless you manually mix and match)

I don't know executor but if you can set an alias you could create an item named e.g. About which executes

%AppletDir%\emerge.exe CoreAbout

Have fun with Emerge Desktop!

OK, this sounds the best, I will do it, thanks!

Many thanks to you for the upgrade, checked eD's version via adding a CoreAbout (Internal Command) item
