Title: Photos, Full Screen and Control Bars
Post by: pat1066 on March 14, 2004, 09:00:49 am

I am really enjoying having my photos play (!) full screen on my monitor to background music but the Control Bars annoy me. It's the way they launch by mouse movement - I like to hold the mouse to change direction, alter volume, as a pointer etc but I have to sit frozen or I keep popping the bars up! Could they be made to operate like Windows task bar? Otherwise I have to leave them always on (less pretty) as they irritate me by popping up at the wrong time.
(Also, when playing a single photo, if continuous is set, the progress marker keeps dancing along the top of the screen, but I can live with that!)

Maybe we can add a Windows taskbar like mode to 10.1.

Until then, maybe you could use keyboard shortcuts instead of the mouse to stop the bars from popping up.
