Your Home Desk Deserves a Wallpaper Too in WinCustomize News WinCustomize Forums

For most of us, the first thing we did with a new PC was change the wallpaper. Before installing anything or moving a single icon, you'd right-click the desktop and swap out whatever default image was there for something that felt like yours. And if you are reading this, there is a strong likelihood that you have a large collection of wallpapers. After all, this is WinCustomize, and for the past couple of decades, we have been collecting them and sharing them with the world. <im

1. Not yet. Custom context-token allocation is not exposed in this release. The **Capabilities** selector does not change the model’s context window. 2. No granular panel yet. Settings → Local AI handles discovery, installation, endpoints, and activation. Staff settings cover model, capabilities, and permissions—not temperature, context, output limits, or reasoning. 3.

Do you happen to have Ollama installed as well? I'm wondering if we can isolate it to if it's the Anything LLM not working with CV or a model issue perhaps.

Reply to IPV6 support in Connection Explorer Stardock Forums

Thanks for the report, the next build 1.2 will include fixes to address the primary issues here. Version 1.2 should be out shortly, it's a big map/ui overhaul and supports multi-device as well but got this fix in there. Version 1.3 roadmap is more under-the-hood detection logic enhancements and data profiling which I will try to further address the scenarios that involve IPV6/UDP and services that are reported independently when they are attached to a Microsoft process.&nb

Reply to color contrast options for dark mode? in Connection Explorer Stardock Forums

[quote who="Videlous" id="542062"] In dark mode of connection explorer, the purple is barely legible (for me) due to lacking color contrast on the gray background. The green is fine, but may not be for others (colorblind individuals.) Could we get either: A: True dark mode with black instead of gray background. B. An option to change the text color to whatever we choose. Anyone else have issues with color choices? [/quote] Will have a be

I need to figure out a better way to work these visuals in...when i had them showing all the time/more frequently, it was noise and was hard to make sense of it.

Reply to Connection Explorer 1.1 Release Thread in Connection Explorer Stardock Forums

[quote who="DrJBHL" reply="3995637" id="542004"] Very happy with this release, so far. Haven't had time to explore deeply, but the zoom is excellent for the most part. I did have an instance where the cursor (regular, vanilla MS cursor) covered part of the contents of the small window...might it be helpful to have an empty "hover zone" to avoid covering the print? Just a thought. Great software! [/quote] If you are able to grab a screenshot
