***PLEASE READ RELEASE NOTES.*** Planned changes: - An About screen to view information about Scratch OS and the system. - Moving the release notes from the box below into the OS itself. - Basic multitasking and window management capabilities. - Replacing the menu bar with something more intuitive. - Using vector graphics to improve scaling (some parts already do). - Making the UI more consistent (metallic vs glass effects, fully switching to vector). ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Recent changes: - Added six new desktop backgrounds. To change your background, click the menu button at the top, select Settings, and click Background. - Fixed a bug where the timer does nothing. - Bug fix: the menu now follows transparency set by the user. - Added a basic settings program, where you can change the volume and personalise the window colours. You can access it by clicking the menu button at the top, and selecting Settings. - Added a calculator program. - Minor bug fix: the time and date display now hide properly when the system is shut down or restarted.
Suggest new features in the comments section! ===RELEASE NOTES FOR SCRATCH OS=== - Scratch OS works best if you switch to full-screen mode. - Logon verification is not case sensitive. - Windows are currently not draggable, although this is planned for the future. However, the typewriter will likely have issues with it. - Some fonts might not display correctly in Edge. - The typewriter does not support new lines, backspace, or caps. - For best results, use a physical keyboard with Scratch OS (i.e. not a touch or on-screen keyboard). - The timer treats any non-number as zero. - If you launch the timer while one is already running, the timer is cancelled and you have to set it again. - For Word of the Day, pressing space will view more definitions and related terms, if available. - If the system is cold-rebooted (i.e. the green flag is pressed), no settings are saved. This does not happen if rebooting from within Scratch OS. - Settings are applied in real time; you do not have to save any changes. - If your window frame is very bright, you should increase transparency to make the title bar readable; do the opposite for very dark frames. - If your transparency value is less than or equal to 20, the menu will be fully opaque.
