Stays on the current screen when Screen Saver invoked

[jksmurf]

I have a simple wish, but it may be Xrecord related. When I go to Xrecord and into a show but do not play it, just leave the cursor in the list, if I leave it like that (teed up so to speak) after the Screen Saver kicks in, it always goes back to the main menu.

I'd like it to just stay where it is. That's my wish!

Are you using the default screen saver, or a plugin screen saver?

[jksmurf]

default. This is through the NMT PCH btw, if it makes any difference. I am not sure if it is the same on the PC.

I'll try to test it later, but it should take you back to the same screen you were on previously. It may not stay showing any popups etc though. I know some plugin screen savers were taking you back to the main menu, which is why I asked about that.

Are you still thinking about providing an API to allow a plugin to 'go back to where it came from' ?

Yeah, I remember that, and still intending to do it for the next release.

That would be much appreciated...

I've never seen this on any plugin (except when audio is playing with MLPanel). My bet is the key you are using to wake the screen saver is causing the problem.

OK, I'll need to check which key I use. I'm fairly sure it is just the OK or an arrow key or the blue key I am pressing (as that brings up the OSD) but it might be the back key.

Well ... I used the Enter key and it did go up one level from the list of shows Mcleod's Daughter's to the next screen up. From the next screen up it didn't move when I used the blue key.
