This checkbox enables/disable the screen saver. You can specify a time in minutes before it kicks in during (hopefully) idle activity using the popup menu. To prevent the screen saver from becoming active at any time place the cursor in the upper left corner of the display. If the mouse is placed in the upper right corner, the screen saver will dim in approx. 2 seconds.
NOTE: If you leave your Owner (Admin) Password field blank, this package will never present the password dialog and acts solely as a screen saver (boring).
Guest Default
If checked, no password will be required whenever the screen saver is dismissed, the system access will default to guest privileges. If unchecked, you must enter an Owner or Guest password to dismiss the screen saver. While this function is enabled, the Owner can still access all privileges by selecting Unlock BugOff... under the File menu. To re-protect everything simple re-enable the screen saver, the next time it's dismissed guest access will be active.
Status Window
Checking this box will provide the user with time remaining feedback before the screen saver will enable. A small window will be displayed in the lower right corner of the screen.
Low Priority
This checkbox will let you specify if the screen saver is to sacrafice its smooth graphics for processing time given to other applications in the background. If this box is checked, you'll notice "jerky" graphics while BugOff is giving most of its time to other applications. If this box is unchecked, minimal time is given to the others, but you're still be able to print/copy/etc. Normally, you may want to keep this box unchecked. You should only check it if you notice an application slowing to a dead crawl while the screen saver is running.
Iris Effect
If this box is checked, you'll see the slow decaying iris effect when the screen saver starts to kick in. If unchecked, the screen will immediately blank. The iris effect is especially handy if you have a password enabled to dismiss the screen saver. It then gives you a chance to abort the dimming process if you happen to be nearby the system.
White Bkgnd
If this box is checked, the screen saver will have a white background rather than black. This is handy for powerbook users where the ON pixel is usually black, especially on active matrix displays.
