New Extensions - Sprite, Parallax, SearchBar

PureDesktop - PurePortal

Hello guys,

we added 3 new Extensions to the ShareCenter.

Sprite
You can now play animations using Sprite-Sheets. Here you can find an example of an spritesheet: Dino

Parallax
Animates a static image so it looks like it moves endless. That Image has to be seamless, but you can find many of them online. E.g. Raventale

SearchBar
Just enter some text and your favorite search engine will open in your browser.

Danger: Particle System!

PureDesktop - PurePortal

The particle system is currently in an unstable state. Wallpapers using these type of extension will crash when switching to another project or deleting the particle system.

Sadly, we cannot fix that our self, because it's a bug in the Qt-Framework. We have to look for an working workaround or have to wait until Qt fixes that bug.

Please remember: It's a Early Access Software and not a stable version! ;)

Update - V1.0.44

PureDesktop - PurePortal

This is a small hotfix.

After the Project-Overview-Upgrade, we forgot to add new downloaded projects from the ShareCenter to the available project list. This version will fix that bug.

Also we improved the translation and increased the amount of logging information to improve the support.

The first update is finished. Yeah!

In this update we have mostly improved the project overview. This is now faster and more beautiful. Hope for you the use is now a little easier and clearer :)

Furthermore, we limit the windows to the available screen area (also called "available screen").

And last but not least, we updated Font Awesome to the latest version.
