- About MissingMetrics
- --------------------
- MissingMetrics (MM) was originally written for the first beta
- version of Windows 95 (Chicago back then) to expose some settings
- which were not yet available through the User Interface at that
- time. Well, some of these settings are still not available in
- Windows 95's late betas and probably won't make it into the
- released product. So it looks like MM is not yet entirely
- obsolete (something I had expected to happen months ago).
-
- MM version 1.0 was in limited distribution only. But since
- Windows 95 is now available to everyone and a need for MM still
- exists, I decided to release this version 1.01 without any
- restrictions and with some Chicago Beta warnings removed.
-
- For Version 1.0 owners: There are NO new features in 1.01.
-
- Features
- --------
- The following settings can be changed with MissingMetrics:
-
- 1. Minimized Icons
- These settings affect minimized icons such as the buttons on
- the Taskbar, minimized MDI windows and windows which minimize
- to the Desktop instead of the Taskbar.
-
- 2. Icon Spacing
- Note: The early Windows 95 betas didn't have a User Interface
- to set the Icon Spacing, but this did change. You can now also
- access these settings on the Desktop Properties->Appearance
- dialog.
-
- 3. Window Animation
- If you don't like the 'flickering' that goes on if you
- mini/maximize a window, you can turn it of with this setting.
- It also helps speeding up these actions.
-
-
- Please note: While MissingMetrics doesn't use any dirty
- programming tricks, it's just software and therefore can have
- errors. So, USE IT AT YOUR OWN RISK.
-
- MissingMetrics is Freeware and can be distributed wherever you
- want.
-
- Enjoy!
