Better Screensavers
You can now select different screensavers independently of the running wallpaper.
Each screensaver can have a custom layout, such as span or duplicate, separate from the wallpaper settings.
Screensavers can now run without needing the Lively app to be open. You can use Lively exclusively as a screensaver app!
This feature is available only in the installer version of Lively.
Optimized and reduced Screensaver Plugin size from 30MB to just under 8kb
Requires new Screensaver Plugin

Better Control Panel
Introducing the new display selector interface that resembles Windows settings. This feature visually shows the positions, sizes and other details of connected displays.
Creating this custom control from scratch was quite a task, as there is no stock way to achieve this 😅

Better Performance - 100,000+ Controls!
The wallpaper customization menu code has been completely rewritten for better performance and easier maintenance.
Thanks to virtualization and templating techniques, the new system has been tested to handle over 100,000 controls effortlessly.

Better Update Experience
The app updater (installer) has been better integrated into the main interface, featuring simple and non-distracting notifications.
The latest update information can now be viewed directly from within the app.

Better Wallpaper Scaling
For better flexibility and user control wallpaper scaler settings are now applied for individual media file and wallpaper layout like span and duplicate.
This feature is only available when Mpv video player is selected.
Previous media customization settings will be cleared to enable this feature.

Better FolderDropdown Control
Redesigned FolderDropdown control with file preview and deletion support.
Preview is supported for most popular formats as it is generated from system shell.

64-bit Architecture
Lively is transitioning from x86 (32-bit) to x64 (64-bit) process architecture.
This change will enhance application performance by better utilizing system resources.
If your current installation has admin privileges, you may receive a one-time prompt asking for the install type. This is normal.
A restart may be requested at the end of the installation process. While not strictly required, it is recommended.
For backward compatibility, the installer filename remains listed as x86.

New random setwp option to randomly select a wallpaper from the library.
Show documentation
