Pausing Deskscapes when the monitor is shut off.

from Stardock Forums

I would like an option that would pause Deskscapes 11 when Windows 11 powers off my monitor.

I have Windows 11 set to power off my monitor after 20 minutes. This is my idle state when my computer will run science research programs.

I would like Deskscapes 11 to resume when the user, me, continues using the computer.

Deskscapes 11 should monitor the computer power state settings and act accordingly.

Cheers.

A complimentary option to this would be an option to 'pause Deskscapes 11 when an App is in fullscreen mode'. There is no reason to change wallpapers when you don't see the Windows Desktop.

Cheers.

Yup, I've seen that. It doesn't seem to work as I expect it to work. Deskscapes 11 seems to try and catch up with a list of wallpapers it was going to display instead of just restarting the timer and displaying the next random wallpaper.

That's the behaviour that I see anyway.

Cheers.
