"Talisman Desktop" (Talisman) is a desktop alternative and shell-replacement for Windows 9x/ME and NT/2000/XP, capable of transforming your desktop into an interface organized as you like. The program's basic purpose: Launch other applications in a new interface, instead of the standard Windows desktop. But the opportunities presented by "Talisman" are much broader. The program does not limit your computer fantasies - draw anything you like and arrange it as your imagination tells you to. When you get tired of looking at the same screen - change it all over again. If you are in a good mood - throw flowers and favorite photos on the screen. If you're not feeling so bright - leave the black screen with lonely Norton Commander or winking Bill Gates. Create invisible buttons - they will open those places and the pictures, known only to you. Construct galleries of the best pictures and photos. Simply create your own little world, created by and for you, instead of staring at the same lines of icons on your desktop, year after year.

With the help of "Talisman" you can create your own interface or use one of the hundreds ready themes that are available in our collections and in the internet. Interface (theme) is a set of screens, forms, "rooms" and objects. All these objects are interactive and respond to movements or clicks of the mouse.

New in Talisman Desktop 2.97
==========================

- Alpha-blended PNG support for Picture, Shape, Form, Desktop, Analog Clock objects.

- Added "custom size" option for Picture objects. Now any Picture object can be scaled.

- Updated Object Editor (TOE):
- rearranged controls for a Button object. Now X,Y position boxes are hidden by default.
- Added "Copy/Paste" commands in the popup menu of the objects tree.
- Added "New" submenu in the popup menu of the objects tree.
- Predefined "Google/Yahoo/MSN search" commands were added in the InputBox Commands menu.

- Added "tobject <form>.<button>.redraw" function for Button objects. It works without theme refreshing. Note: this function redraws a button directly on the previous image. Therefore you should use it only for rectangular objects without transparent areas.

- Added "tobject <form>.<picture>.redraw" function for Picture objects. It works without theme refreshing. Note: this function redraws a picture directly on the previous image. Therefore you should use it only for rectangular objects without transparent areas.

- Added "tobject <form>.<picture>.picture=<filename>" command for Picture objects. It works without theme refreshing. Note: this function redraws a picture directly on the previous image. Therefore you should use it only for rectangular objects without transparent areas.

- Added "tobject windows.workarea.refresh" function. Changing of Windows workarea size doesn't require full refreshing of a theme now.

- Added a custom command line for the List object (like for the InputBox object). If you enter any Talisman command line in this box with [value] variable - the word [value] will be replaced by selected List item text in the executable command.

- Fixed the "Save First Item Position" bug in List objects of top forms.

- Other changes and bug fixes.
