Support for RHEL 9 and Rocky Linux 9
This release introduces support for RHEL 9 and Rocky Linux 9 as a TECHNOLOGY PREVIEW. Full support will be available in a later release.
Improved monitor consistency for AV Lock Settings
Improvement to function of AV Lock settings to improve consistency of what screens have AV Lock turned on when switching between Full Screen All Monitors, Full Screen One Monitor and Windowed mode. AV Lock will stay associated with specific monitors when in Full Screen modes. For example if AV Lock it turned on for Monitor 2, if you switch to full screen one monitor on Monitor 2, AV Lock will remain turned-on. Windowed mode will apply the setting of the monitor the window is opens on, changing AV Lock mode on the window will affect the setting for that monitor when you return to full screen modes.
