Kotoko Suite 5.0 [WIP]

Post by ~Faradey~ »

Since a lot of new features and other additions were added in upcoming version i decided to start from new version cycle and finish with 4th. In this topic i'll post videos and snapshots of changes, and in case of good suggestion i would try (if possible) to add it before release.





Let's start from slideshow...

SlideShow Folder
Multimedia\SlideShow\Folder_SlideShow\SlideShow-Folder.ini

i recommend to switch to 720p for better quality

• Zoom and "drag to view"
• Quick & easy change of path where images located
• Set as desktop wallpaper, by demand or automatic
• Pause/UnPause of Slide Show

...and other minor stuff ;)
