Sun, 15 Aug 2010 08:28:21 GMT http://www.johnnyfoster.com/Downloads_TickerTape.htm This minor update to Ticker Tape adds some additional functionality, including the ability to configure Ticker Tape from the GUI itself, rather than having to edit configuration files manually and should make setting Ticker Tape up much, much easier and more reliable. <br> <br>A new 'Live Preview' function is also included allowing you to see exactly what an Agent message would look like as you alter its font, size, colours, speed and width on the fly. <br> <br>v1.2 of the Administrator component is fully compatible with older Agents, so Agent updates can also be safely staged. Sat, 26 Jun 2010 14:23:03 GMT http://www.johnnyfoster.com/Downloads_TickerTape.htm This minor update to Ticker Tape corrects a number of issues with the initial release, along with adding a small amount of additional user requested functionality including the ability to alter the font and width of the Ticker Tape Agent message bar. <br> <br>Several bug fixes are also included, increasing the resilience of both the Administrator and Agent components - in particular, the Agent now consistently launches at machine start-up when there are spaces in the path to its executable. <br> <br>If you're using v1.0, you are encouraged to update to v1.1 as soon as possible.
