Commenti su Magnifying Glass Pro 1.8
Please add a comment explaining the reason behind your vote.
Because of the endless features, and useful UI features, such as mouse-shaking, this is my favorite magnifier. It's not without its problems, and it may be less useful on Windows 7, which has an improved magnifier over even Vista's improved magnifier.
The two biggest problems are a long-standing issue with sometimes consuming ridiculous amounts of CPU when it's off. This is a permanent condition which usually occurs when it's loaded, but sometimes doesn't. I thought it depended upon mouse-shaking being enabled, but it doesn't. Workers Collection has never fixed that problem. The second issue is turning off Aero in some modes. To avoid switching off Aero, I use Corner Tracker with maximum offset. That has issues with not constraining the glass to the current monitor on multi-monitor systems.
Every time this is offered, there are all sorts of ridiculous comments. This has lots of features which the built-in Windows Magnifier, even the Vista one, doesn't. This is designed to not interfere with the mouse features, hotkeys, etc., of the application being magnified. Therefor, it has its own hotkeys, command mode, etc., which you should study in its Help file before complaining that it doesn't do something.
The "what's new" for this version are noted on this page at the top, to the right of the system requirements.
The Good
* You can setup the magnifier to work in many different ways for different scenarios.
* Works with hotkeys.
* You can take screenshots of what you magnify.
* Interesting "mouse shaking" feature.
* Useful "auto profile switcher" that can automatically change the magnifies to a different profile when a certain program is running.
The Bad
* No option to hide mouse while using magnifier.
* "Auto profile switcher" does not seem to detect notepad properly.

#1, Ashraf, as I've often noted, you continue to blame the software when you don't understand what it's doing. If you look at the sample auto-switch profiles for Notepad, you'll see that there are two. One pops up when you use the keyboard within Notepad. The other makes the glass invisible when you use the mouse cursor within Notepad.
Note: when using the Options main dialog, you must click "Save" at the top before exiting if you want the changes to apply. I neglected to mention previously that Magnifying Glass Pro is one of the former GOTD offerings for which I purchased a license.
The other magnifier which I use is Microsoft Sysinternals ZoomIt 4.0, which, in addition to its numerous features, has a neat full-screen LiveZoom mode on Vista and higher, which doesn't interfere with Aero. However, at least on my PC, and also noted by some other people, but not all, ZoomIt has some bugs.

+++ Save Button option allows user to save chosen settings.
ACTUAL PROGRAM OPERATION:
Upon selection of desired settings, and turning the magnifying feature "ON", the magnification function worked well and effectively, as described and as expected. Program operation was smooth.
CONS:
*** No apparent (or easy) way to exit the "magnification function."
*** Upon right-clicking the magnifying glass (to access the program's context menu) and choosing the "exit" option to stop the magnification process, I received an Access Violation error message - after this point, accessing the magnification program again was impossible (i.e., could not enter program). I had to re-start my computer to fix this problem, which it did. Then, to re-create and test this problem a second time, I right-clicked the magnifying glass again to bring up its context menu, and chose the "exit" option. Same Access Violation error happened again. Developer - please fix this fatal error/bug. Thank you. I'll also send a message to the developer about this matter and follow up with everyone via the GOTD forums section.
The workaround for this problem would be to do "Control, Alt, Delete" to bring up the Windows Task Manager to "end the program process." Yes, this is inconvenient, but at least there is a solution to this problem (if you are looking for a program like this.)
SUMMARY:
Despite the one flaw of not being able to exit magnification program via selecting "exit option" from right-click context menu, the program's benefits far outweigh (in my humble opinion) this one flaw. Thus, I give today's GiveAway a thumbs up. Thanks, GOTD and Workers Collection, for today's unique/nice program.
100% Free, Open-Source Option (for those who miss or do not want today's offer):
Virtual Magnifying Glass, v3.3.2 - Compatible with Windows (Vista, XP, 2000, NT, ME, 98, 95), Linux, FreeBSD, Mac OS X.
Best,
Happy
There's an even simpler way for zooming in on your screen. No programs involved.
Just hold down the Ctrl key and use the scroll on your mouse.
You can zoom in our out with it and don't need to go into your accessories.

Programma inutile a meno che uno abbia problemi di vista o un monitor microscopico e comunque anche in questo caso i sistemi operativi di microsoft già includono un magnifier meno complicato di quello proposto.

another thing.
i type in gaotd very fast because i've very few time.
make a try... type at 130 dgts/min and let me see how many mistyping you made uh?
it's very easy to sit there and wait the mistakes of others....

@about_become
ok. about TO become....
it' was obvious i'd mistakenly missed a word.
you're so silly to remark so pitiful things to feel yourself greater.
i think real greatness it's in behaviour and in knowledge aside the typing. obviously it's my opinion. but i believe that. indeed the greatest personalities in the world was even the simplest:
ghandy, woytijla pope (sorry i've never learned the exact typing of his name), ghorbachov (same as the pope), pavarotti, luther king, mother teresa of calcutta, etc.
so perhaps you'd make better to be less prance and to learn to not poke fun at others only for some mistyping.
best regards.

mah credo che ormai pensino che e inutile. qualche intervento c'e stato ma molto molto limitato. e solo nel passato. tanto piu che basterebbe bannare i MAC address. quanti pc riesce raggiungere giovi?? credo pero a leggere i commenti di bubby nella sezione americana che non reputino cosi gravi i suoi post (in particolare riguardo una risposta a un tuo post su certe affermazioni di giovy)
ah lo sai che giovi mi ha scritto sulla mail per chiedermi di unirmi al suo gruppo su un social network? ma ti rendi conto. come minimo me l'ha mandato pescando la mia mail con qualche sw per lucrare con i suoi truccheti su chi si unisce. bah. se aspetta che ci casco aspetta un pezzo.
per i sw e vero ultimamente sono un po ripetitivi. sempre sw abb marginali.

TITOLO: FOTOGRAFANDO QUA E LA I WC DI CITTA
oggi recensisco un altra fotocamera digitale imprestatomi da un mio parente acquisito dopo che mio fratello si e sposato ed allargato la famiglia con annessi e connessi e disconnessi.la panasonic lumix dmc-fz20 e veramente una buona fotocamera.la sua linea e elegante a livello estetistico.il suo obbiettivo che costituisce il 30% del intera fotocamera oltre a poter fotografare obbiettivi lontani e una specie di cannone.i suoi comandi sono semplici da usare e ci impiegate 5 minuti senza libretto di istruzioni per capire come funziona.il suo prezzo ora e sceso in offerta a 499,00 euro e se cercate una buona fotocamera ve la posso consigliare perche e degna di essere acquistata ed usata per le vostre pazze fotografie.fotografie che con memory card da 512 possono arrivare a piu di 300 foto.il resto invece rimane nella norma come scaricare foto su pc che viene accettato da tutti i sistemi operativi ed i cd sono auto installanti oppure in modalita manuale.insomma vale la pena comprarlo visto che e piu potente della fz8 sempre della panasonic di almeno del 25% in piu,inoltre a batteria interna sua in dotazione ricaricabile che ne fa ancor di piu un ottima fotocamera digitalistica da comprare e possedere per fotografare i wc cittadini ed altro che vi fara comodo fotografare.

Hi useless people!
King of Giveaway & of Conquistadores is speaking!
Questo programma è stato offerto altre 3 volte prima di oggi, e c'è una kosa molto kuriosa.... il 28 luglio 2007 il software ha preso addirittura un 89% di HUGE THUMBS UP contro un misero 11% di HUGE THUMBS DOWN... praticamente un plebiscito, neanche fosse un software da Geek... un anno dopo invece ha preso 38% di THUMBS UP e 62% di THUMBS DOWN..
Ma come vengono dati i voti su Giveaway? A CASO?
Questo dimostra che solo i GEEK come me dovrebbero frequentare questo sito per dare informazioni utili e interessanti... tutti gli altri cervellini invidiosini dovrebbero stare alla larga da qualunque cosa che riguarda l'informatika... altrimenti questi sono i risultati...
MA PURTROPPO non tutti sono GEEK IMPLAKABILI e INFALLIBILI come CERBOTTO.... TREBLE LOL!!!
Cheers!
Enjoy!
