Impossible to make changes to the screen saver. Any way to solve this problem Thanks Michel S. ID: 24583 · Reply Quote

The latest ones aren\'t passing some of the keys through to the \'worker daemon\', and <Ctrl> is one of them. But the screensaver isn\'t recommended anyway, as it can take up to 50% of the processors time to create the image. Better to set Windows to Blank or None, and use the Show graphics button when you want to look at the globe. ID: 24584 · Reply Quote
