It came to our attention that this gadget needed a major overhaul. We’ve had lots of requests for new buttons, functionality, fix some of the existing buttons, etc. It was about time.

Yesterday we unveiled System Control 1.4, a fully updated, partially rewritten, and seriously upgraded version of our popular command launchpad. Here’s all the fun stuff:

• Fixed Sleep and split out Hibernate into it’s own button.
• Fixed Switch User.
• Added international date format to the bottom text.
• Added buttons for: Screensaver and Control Panel.
• Added a timer for commands, configurable from gadget flyout.
• Added new button styles to better fit themes.
• Added a medium size (finally!)
• Made the interface more adaptive, it will get rid of the arrows if you don’t need them (ie. small size with 4 buttons displays all 4 buttons with no second page).

We hope everyone enjoys the new update and as usual, please let us know if you run into any issues or want to pass along any suggestions and things you’d like to see. We read and try to respond to everything we can.
