Re: Encountered an improper argument error bug

Hello, the error "Encountered an improper argument" means that there was an unpredictable error somewhere in the code. The condition of images without a group assigned is of course handled but it is possible that a combination of factors caused that error. Unfortunately the causes of this ...

Re: Last image - wallpaper

Starting from windows 8 Microsoft changed the way windows handles the desktop wallpaper, gPhotoShow should correctly create the bitmap for windows 8 but in your case it seems it doesn't detect window 8 or windows 8.1 handles some monitor alignment in another way.

Re: Last image - wallpaper

I just released gPhotoShow Pro 7.1.1 that should fix this issue on Windows 8.1. As I wrote before it works only if the program "Control Screen Saver" is running. gPhotoShow Pro should also support file names using hebrew alphabet since it's fully unicode. You can try it freely for 30 days:...

Re: Latest - settings?

Hello, with the current gPhotoShow Pro version it is possible to do what you ask but there are several drawbacks as you noticed. To get best performances when using exif tags the files cache must enabled, the cache is used by gPhotoShow not only to avoid repeating images but also to avoid reading ex...
