Realtime Soft heeft maandag een nieuwe bètarelease van Ultramon uitgebracht. Dit programma is gemaakt voor systemen waarop meerdere monitoren zijn aangesloten. Zo is het bijvoorbeeld mogelijk om de desktop over de verschillende monitoren te verspreiden, waarbij ook de andere monitoren een startbalk hebben. Verder zijn onder andere vensters een stuk makkelijker naar een andere monitor te slepen en kan elk scherm zijn eigen achtergrond of screensaver krijgen. Versie 3.0 van Ultramon voegt onder andere volledige ondersteuning toe voor Windows Vista en verbeterde ondersteuning voor programma's als Office 2007 en programma's die onder een ander gebruikersaccount worden gestart. Hieronder is te vinden welke aanpassingen er allemaal in versie 3.0.3 beta zijn doorgevoerd:
New in this releaseFixed issues
- New mirroring feature: the mirroring feature is now available on Windows Vista as well, and has several new modes, in addition to mirroring one or more monitors, you can mirror only a single application, part of the desktop, or the area around the mouse pointer.
Zooming is supported, and mirroring now preserves aspect ratios when mirroring monitors with different resolutions and aspect ratios. You can pause mirroring (freeze the mirror display). Due to no longer using a display mirror driver, compatibility issues with some video card driver versions and installation issues have been fixed.- New security feature: all binaries are DEP (Data Execution Prevention) and ASLR (Address Space Layout Randomization) compatible.
