[!] Important
[+] New

[*] Changes


---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Actual Multiple Monitors 4.1 beta 2 (28.04.2012)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
[+] Windows 8: Start button is restored in Actual Taskbars (click on this button
    invokes the system Start screen).

[*] Compatibility with NVIDIA nView is improved.

[*] Desktop Divider: The ability is added to auto-generate the grid division of
    defined dimensions.

[*] Desktop Divider: In the "While pressed" activation mode, now it's possible
    to press the modifier keys after the moment you began to drag a window, i.e.
    you can activate/deactivate the Desktop Divider anytime.

[*] In the Aero visual theme, now it's possible to resize a window
    when the mouse is over additional title buttons.

[-] In some cases, the extra Excel button began to appear/disappear repeatedly
    in Actual Taskbars.

[-] Actual Taskbar detected the full-screen windows wrong in the Aero visual
    theme.

[-] Using the "Cascade/Stacked/Side by side" commands in Actual Taskbar's
    context menu made the maximized windows on other monitors restore to their
    normal size.

[-] Clicking the Maximize button in a window that was Aero-snapped to left/right
    half of desktop did not maximize the window.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Actual Multiple Monitors 4.1 beta 1 (11.04.2012)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
[+] Custom grouping of taskbar buttons is now available in Actual Taskbar.

    To add certain window into a group, drag its preview thumbnail and drop it
    onto the group button (or another window's button to make a new group).

    To remove window from the group, drag its preview thumbnail and drop it
    onto the empty taskbar space.

    Note: Dragging the preview of a browser tab (Internet Explorer, Chrome,
    Firefox, etc.) will add the entire browser window into the group, not just
    that separate tab.

[+] The "Tile/Cascade/Minimize/Restore" commands has been added to taskbar group
    button's context menu (you can invoke using Shift-RClick on the group
    button).

[+] The "Tile/Cascade/Undo" commands has been added to taskbar's context menu.

[+] You can add custom title buttons at the level of particular window settings
    (either Default or Specific). Also, you can change the order of buttons and
    tell apart the groups of similar buttons by adding separators between them.

    Note: There's no "Title Buttons Order" group anymore in the "Options - Title
    Buttons" panel because now the order can be adjusted for different window
    settings individually.

    Warning! Custom title buttons are not compatible with the Multi-selection
    Edit yet so please avoid any manipulations with them (adding, deleting,
    moving) when several window settings are selected to prevent the corruption
    of your settings.

[+] The ability to copy the Desktop Divider layout is added.

[+] The ability is added to copy the layout from one monitor to another in the
    Tiles Editor.

[*] The Tiles Editor better displays the hierarchy of panels forming the layout:
    the deeper the panel is - the lighter its splitter looks.

[*] Now it's possible to disable the classic snapping of windows to Desktop
    Divider tiles (see the "To Desktop Divider tiles" option in the "Options -
    Window Snapping" panel).

[-] After placing a window into a Divider's tile on another monitor and then
    maximizing the window, its restoration brought it back to the original
    monitor.

[-] Activating another Desktop Divider layout did not make its tiles conform
    with the Desktop work area.

[-] Ignore Deactivation action made the Lock Mouse action stop working.
