| AFAOS 4.0 final beta.
This is the final beta test version of AfA OS 4.0, which is running stable with
it's extended features. If you mention that a program does not show bigger than
normal borders (increased Bordersize) properly, please give me feedback about it,
so I can Blacklist these Programmes from the beginning in the final release.
These blacklisted programmes will then only use standard border size.
Please read more for features and further information!
Features:
You can select between Visualprefs, Birdie or AFA-skin system via AFA_Prefs and a customized startup-sequence.
Please follow the procedure that is given in the readme to do so.
(In Amikit 1.4 it is already implemented as standard)
OS4/PNG Icons can be scaled in realtime, due to a high quality scale code by Thilo Köhler.
On a Classic (060) OS4 Mason-Icons in 30 pixel size can be shown faster than in original size.
See provided screenshot of scaled Masonicons, on the right, Ken-Icons are in original size.
Added for "getdiskobject" and "dupdiskopbject" following tags "IA_Width" and "IA_Height" for scaling.
Realtime Skinsystem, which can switch skins without closing the screen for switching.
User-defined border size, for any window, see screenshot at the following link:

A user-configurable blacklist with tasknames of programs that do not work with increased border size properly, so that only AOS standard size will be used.
Many configurable real time parameters, like 3 different borderlines.
The user can alter the pre defined Skin parameter through a GUI.
Window Title Font is autonomously from AOS window font selectable.
Position of window title font, shadow and depth selectable.
The Skins consist of several images: Screentitle, all parts of the window border like top-, left-, bottom- and right-frame. For- and background for the vertical/
horizontal sliding controller.
7 Skins from Ken Lester are usable. Follow the link for a screenshot with 6 out of 7 of these skins:
