Sheep On-Demand (Win XP)

First off, let me just thank everyone and anyone involved with creating E.S. It's been my screensaver for a couple years now, I think.

I have a Logitech keyboard with customizable keys. Keys which can open a document or program (Which I have set for FireFox and OpenOffice), but I was wondering if there was a way to set one of these buttons to launch E.S.

More specifically, I'm wondering what file to tell the Logitech program to launch when I press the button.

It was outdated.

I had 2_7b17 and I've just updated to 2_7b19.

 

The launch E.S. only brings up the control panel for the screensaver and the run button has it in a window. Is that how it's supposed to work? I was kind of hoping for full screen.

The first two do the same thing by bringing up the config panel.

well that's clearly broken, "run" should bring it up fullscreen.  i would recommend uninstalling, making sure all the menu items are gone, and installing the latest prerelease 2.7b20e and trying again.

Arugh

Having completely uninstalled and reinstalled with no results, I'm beginning to think that the problem isn't ES. Clicking on Run only brings up the control panel. Clicking Run from the control panel brings up ES in a window which simply resets when I press the keyboard shortcut.

Any theories as to what outer configuration might cause the problem? This isn't essential, but it would be pretty nice to have fixed.

look in the start menu under

look in the start menu under electric sheep, you should find a command to start it full screen.

Not there

I only see an icon to Uninstall and a website shortcut.
