On my system, it prevents the screen saver from #activating. What is its real function? Thanks. #Rich Quadrel #rquadrel@cad.cs.cmu.edu Actually, it's called the "SystemIQ activity monitor." When this box is checked, After Dark will notice when your system appears busy, such as heavy disk activity, AppleTalk activity, and serial port activity. After Dark will throttle down the animation speed of the current module to 1 frame/sec. This was done to keep After Dark from slowing down your mac when you leave it unattended. -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- - Patrick Beard, Macintosh Programmer (beard@lbl.gov) - - Berkeley Systems, Inc.
