I’m glad to see a product like swfkit, simple enough to be easy to construct simple projectors but powerful to build complex ones. I’m addressing you to mention some troubles that appear to me as bugs. :
The shaped windows dos not work in windows 95, they appear as flat rectangles. By example, run media.exe and you will see what I mean. Seems estrange to me, because I ran applications built with some other software that calls SetWindowRegion, CreatePolygonRgn and CombineRgn etc. in the same machine without a problem.
Also in windows 95, if the appearance “set clip shape” option is on, the projector window never get the mouse messages, if you click on it the click is received by the window that is on the back, or by the desktop.
In windows XP if I add another webbrowser control as a popup window, sometimes hidden sometimes not, and you leave the projector using FSCommand("Quit", "") I got an after-close error. If I close the inner windows before closing the main one I can quit without error. It seems like the FSCommand("Quit", "") close so fast without taking care of killing processes in the Activex childs.
Now my wish list:
If several Flash players are present in the machine, and option to pick the one that is going to be packed with the projector.
An option to use FFish Script for screen savers, by example, will be nice to see in the screen saver if new mail has arrived.
A way to catch not only errors, but warnings too.
Support for multiple languages.
A way to load numeric tables to define regions and combine them.
Thanks a lot.
