Backlight Description

Provides a menu extra that allows you to turn your screensaver on and off as your desktop background BackLight provides a menu extra (really an NSStatusItem, which are fully supported in Jaguar) that allows you to turn your screensaver on and off as your desktop background.Backlight can also change your screensaver and open the preferences.Having your screensaver on your desktop is quite a cool effect, but you should probably have a Quartz Extreme-capable machine if you want to handle the load.BackLight adds a menu to the system menu bar to access if features.Simply choose the "Start Screen Effects" menu item to start running a screen effect as the your background. Then choose "Stop Screen Effects" to stop it and return to your normal background picture. Doing so will start the screen effect that is checked in the "Screen Effects" menu. To change which module is running, simply select the desired screen effect from the "Screen Effects" menu. Once an effect has been chosen, it will start running as your background and is set to be the screen effect that is run when the "Start Screen Effects" menu item is selected. What's New in This Release: · Added Panther and Expose support · Fixed compatibility issue with Konfabulator · Added option to set the window's transparency · Apple's Screen Effects Engine no longer used
