I know I have overlooked it somewhere, but, how do you turn off the Sage screensaver completely

Detailed Setup -> General -> Screen Saver on Sleep; set it to Disabled. You can also set the Screen Saver Timeout to 0 minutes...

Oh. You can't set it to 0, can you!

You will be able to in the next update.

For now, I guess you could set the screen_saver_wait_time property to 0.

Hey.. we used to be able to set to 0!
In fact.. mine was set to 0 and out of curiosity I set it to something else and now I can't set it back? I am correct in believing Sage used to let you put in 0 yes?

Yes, you used to be able to set it to 0. But you could also set it to -5 minutes or 0.05 minutes, neither of which could actually be used since anything below 1 minute doesn't get used... except for 0.

So, in 5.02 the only option is to find the screen_saver_wait_time property since the UI prevents <1?
BTW. I find the the screensaver options to be complicated. If the underlaying windows OS has it disabled, Sage should learn and apply the same...
