[!] Important
[+] New
[-] Fixed error
[*] Changes


---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Actual Window Manager 7.5 beta 2 (14.03.2013)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
[+] Ability is added to put a specific window at startup into the selected tile
    of a chosen Desktop Divider layout.

[*] CPU load is reduced when moving a window with the Desktop Divider active.

[*] Classic snapping now ignores the 100%-transparent (i.e. invisible) windows.

[-] In the Aero visual theme, MS Office 2010/2013 windows disappeared after
    a second click on the Make Transparent title button.

[-] Windows 7: If Internet Explorer is already open, launching a new instance
    of it opened an unwanted extra window.

[-] Windows 7: Task Manager's Applications tab became empty when
    Actual Window Manager was running.

[-] Actual Window Manager Slideshow screen saver stopped showing pictures
    on existing monitors after attaching an additional one.

[-] Moving a window between monitors via Monitor Selector dialog made
    the Move to Monitor title button's tool tip incorrect.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Actual Window Manager 7.5 beta 1 (22.02.2013)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
[!] Global system hooks are replaced with the hooks local for each process.
    This should fix some known compatibility problems (e.g. with Lotus Notes,
    Adobe Acrobat) and also improve the overall stability.

[+] The ability to invoke various system actions via hotkeys is added:

    - Lock PC, Log Off, Switch User, Sleep, Hibernate, Restart, Shutdown
    - Volume Up/Down/Mute
    - Safely Remove USB Device

[*] List of hotkey actions can be filtered by hotkey category (System, Mouse,
    Custom, etc.).

[*] Hotkeys now work in applications (mostly, video games) that use DirectInput
    to provide keyboard/mouse control (e.g. Elder Scrolls: Skyrim,
    Battlefield 3, etc.).
