Description :

This program brings you a 3D cube which will be used to switch/rotate between running programs.

This will be useful if you assign a hardware button to it.Currently program dont do that automatically!

Use Settings->Personal->Buttons to do that.(assign it to '3D AltTab Switcher').

You can also customize your animation effects from settings,and also animation speed.

If program doesnt show animation either you are low on memory or you have to manually assign a Graphic engine(like GAPI or DirectX) to program.(from settings)

For gaining Startup speed of program,use make resident and also start server.

this way animation starts a bit faster!

---------- What is the server in settings -----------------------

--------- This explanation below is not for newbie users :) -----

--------- If you think yourself as an advanced user read this ---------------

Program also includes a server program.Which normally you can run it from program's settings.

The main purpose of this sever is to make animation smoother.

This server also prevent some black and bad/garbage windows during animation which you will get sometimes if you are not running this server.

This server will remain resident in memory(only 7kb)and takes snapshot of programs whenever you close them.

So the only speed penalty is when you click X button(and only this way),and no memory footprint.

Program saves screenshots of programs as bitmap files(.bmp) into a location where you installed this program.(Memory or Storage Card).

So if you do a lot multitasking(and also keep them open) it will consume your disk space.

Each screenshot is normally around 200kb.So if you have more than 3mg of free space in your storage card or internal storage you are safe!(it can accommodate more than 10 screenshots which you never open that much programs!).

Note that program only keep screenshots of current running applications so whenever you close one,you actually free screenshot and space from your memory/storage card.

Program also dont take screenshots when you reach storage space below around 1mg.

Because this server uses lots of undocumented APIs it MIGHT hang or ruin or DESTROY your device.So beware!(although it is unlikely).

Server also doesnt start automatically with windows.You have to run it by Program settings or put it into startup folder(file name is 3daltserver.exe).(which i did myself).

Anyway from users experiences running server all the time in background is safe and no harms so far has been reported.

So all this warning after more tests in next version will be removed.

NEVER EVER UNINSTALL PROGRAM WHILE SERVER IS RUNNING.

Future versions will prevent this but for now dont even think about doing that!
