Re: vista 5270 and windows switcher

Dear Ivo Manolov
Can you clarify that someone shown the way of
Slow Motion 3D Flip will be included in the future Build or not.
They can even run on 5270 smoothly.

Regards
Betty Kelly

The Flip3D feature (the windows switching facility in Windows Vista in 3D
mode) will be part of the end-product of Windows Vista as well as Windows
Server Codename Longhorn.

Hi Betty,

Currently there is no way to slow down the Flip3D transitions. We don't have
plans to expose such functionality in future builds either.

Hope that answers your question:

Dear Ivo
That's the answer I anticipated from you, officially.
BTW I love to see people show off and answer like a Microsoft Expert.

Thanks/Regards
