>"Is it possible to use DVPlayer instead of MPlayer?" 
If you mean that small/thumb video display then no. DVPlayer doesn't allow to set window size from command line. Otherwise you can add user buttons to every drawer which you can use to launch any program with selected files.

Really nice! If you go on you will end up with some kind of "Ambient on Reaction"... ;-) Is it possible to use DVPlayer instead of MPlayer?

Really better and better every release :) 
ATM I found an annoing thing... 
When previewing a big image the system was really sloved down so... 
Plz add Exif load support for photo and/or use really low priority to do the preview... 
 
GOOD WORK!

Quote: "The icons themselves have moved, but the volume gauge is in two or three places. " 
Yes. I noticed that myself. I've fixed that (hopefully) and moving prefs back to ENVARC/ENV.

Even when compositing is off, if I go like crazy moving randomly drive icons around (with volume gauge underneath), and move a few at a time, then some individually, really really fast, then opening windows randomly dragging them around the screen really fast and basically just going crazy with everything, I get copies of the volume gauges. The icons themselves have moved, but the volume gauge is in two or three places.

Tuomas, I wish there was an easy way of contacting you. My e-mail address can be found without too much hassle. You can contact me and i'll reply. The problem is when Compositing is turned on for that public screen. Turn off compositing and it's fine.

Couldn't find any e-mail address or forum to contact you on, Tuomas. I'm having issues with moving drive icons. It's the first time i've tried this program, and it looks fantastic, but lets say I run it with HyperBench PUBSCREEN=test123. It opens up fine, but when I drag RAM Disk, Work, Workbench etc.. to another location, the icon graphic is being copied instead of moved/dragged, so I end up with two RAM Disk icons, two Work icons, etc.. If I double-click on a drive then move the window over the entire screen to force a graphics refresh, it fixes up the icons. 
 
Is there an issue using PROGDIR: or just switching back to ENVARC: again? ENVARC is exactly the right place for preferences, and ENV is exactly the right place for temporary preferences, in my opinion.

@MichaelMerkel 
I was thinking to use program dir at first. But how to use a prog dir when the program is not run yet the first time. Or if use Prefs programs tooltype then the main program have to be able to find the icon of the prefs program to read its tooltypes when they're in different dirs. 
 
I have to think how to do it.

from the readme: 
>Prefs files are now stored into sys:Prefs instead of ENVARC:. 
>Temporary prefs are stored into ram:T instead of ENV:. 
 
sys:prefs is NOT intended for preference files! please switch back to ENVARC:/ENV: (which i presonally don't like much - it should be reserved for "system" prefs only) or save the prefs in the program directory. 
 
thanks and regards

Btw. Have you replaced your CON-handler with KCON completely or do you have them both like I do ?

I'm using command: NewCLI WINDOW="CON:250/400/500/200/AmigaShell/CLOSE/SCREEN=" FROM=S:Shell-startup to launch Shell from YAD. I guess I have to ask help on Amigans.net.

@Tuomas/TSK 
Tryed last version, for the same "newshell" bug. So, i unpack archive, run prefs (detect that there is WB2 are done), close, run main programm, choice tools/sheel, and have window from YEtAnotherDesktop with "NEWSHELL: bad number of params". 
 
But programm in general looks pretty professional :)

@Tuomas 
Yep, i run for first YADPrefs (it have Workbench2 item in YAD list, i change nothing here). 
So, after i run YetAnotherDesk itself, and then tools/shell => dsi.

@kas1e 
Did you run YADPrefs before testing it and did you set any screen ? On which screen it opened (Workbench or other public screen) ? (I have to check autodocs of SystemTags() more closely.)

@Tuomas 
I have KCON installed .. Grim looks like: 
Task 0xXXXXXXX ("newshell") 
type: DSI 
module: dos.library.kmod 
alert: 800000003 
 
Stack trace generating in GR window show me only bugs in the dos.library.lmod, kernel, locale.library and shell.kmod.. (nothing about main binary instructions). 
 
But newshell, newcli or any other kind of those commands works fine for me when i type it myself ..

@kas1e 
It looks like I've made a big mistake to use KCON: instead of CON: launching Shell. Do you have KingCON installed ? I'll fix this for the next release. 
 
@all 
I forgot to mention that language catalogs are outdated because I wanted to release this version fast because of that menu problem with older versions. I'll fix that in the next version.

I forgot to raise version number of YADPrefs to 1.8. So it has old version number but it's changed.

@Hans 
Did you create that screen first with sys:Prefs/Screens editor ? (It's mentioned 
in the readme.) Did you enable "Open/close automatically" in Screens editor for 
that screen also ? It has to be enabled. (I forgot that part from the readme.)

Quote: "What is the name of the font you're using" 
It doesn't set any font itself. It's using systems font which you can set in 
Font prefs.

Execuse me, What is the name of the font you're using 
as Screen font and Workbech Icon font? It looks like 
Tahoma, but slightly narrower.

Hmmm... forced it to use smart refresh? it's a lot slower now :( 
 
Another little glitch, the buttons are attached to the slider, not the window 
border, so stretching the window out gives: 
list:scrollbar:buttons:gap:windowborder

Looking good, one little problem though, the background and icons don't get 
updated if you use simple refresh, you just get grey blocks.
