Purpose

Use Button Bounce to prevent burn-in with lively buttons.

Steps

1	Choose the Time interval between screen updates. A larger value means slower bouncing.

2	Choose Slingshot to automatically throw the button back up in the air when its bounces get lower, so it continues to bounce.

3	Specify a limit for the number of times a button will bounce before it drags along the top row and pops into place. Without a slingshot limit, a button could theoretically miss its slot and bounce forever.

4	Specify an X velocity to set the speed of horizontal movement.

5	Specify a Gravity value to set the speed of vertical movement.

6	Select Bouncing Sound to hear a Boing when the buttons bounce (your machine must have sound capabilities).

7	Select Popping Sound to hear a Pop when the buttons pop into a slot (your machine must have sound capabilities).

8	Select Drag Sound to hear scraping as the buttons drag across the screen (your machine must have sound capabilities).

9	Select Pause at bottom to make the buttons pause momentarily before each bounce.

10	Type the full path of the .WAV file to play when this saver starts up and stops.

11	Set the Password options you want, then choose OK.

Purpose

Use Wandering Buttons to prevent burn-in with restless buttons.

Steps

1	Specify the Number of Buttons you want to appear on the screen. The more buttons there are, the slower they move.

2	Specify a Reset interval to determine how frequently the saver will change the background color.

3	Select Blackout to make the buttons' path black. When the button travels, everything the button passes over will turn black.

4	Select Same Color Paths to make all buttons have the same color path. The Reset Interval determines how often the color will change.

5	Select Random Colors to make the buttons paths change to random colors at each reset interval, instead of starting at black and cycling through blues, greens, and then reds.

6	Set the Password options you want, then choose OK.
