Screen blanks out for a bit before coming back

Postby anerjee » 20.11.2007 00:38:47

When I switch desktops, the screen blanks out and then comes back. It is usually less than 2 secs, but I have noticed it is more for desktops with more windows open. Is there anyway I can prevent this -- make the transition more smooth.

Also - desktop preview does not paint all the windows. It just puts icons for some and previews for others. Is there a way to find out what is wrong?

I have been using this for the last few days and it has made my life a lot easier. I used to be buried under multiple versions of excel sheets. Great work!

Are all desktops using the same display resolution and color depth settings?
Also, previous versions used to blank out the screen on purpose. That's long gone though. Are you using the latest version (1.4.something)?

desktop preview does not paint all the windows. It just puts icons for some and previews for others.

The 'desktop preview' only has icons, the 'full-screen preview' shows icons for desktops you have not yet visited.
