Win8 experience serialized second hit taskbar and personal account! (2)

Of course, if you want to go along this line of thought, pulling social network avatars, supporting camera head shooting, etc. These are not problems. From this point of view, connecting with social networks is obviously the biggest attraction of Win8 in the future.

In addition, the login interface before entering Windows has also improved, in addition to replacing the new background image, the user avatar has become larger. And compared to the compact switch button in Win7, Win8 also made it into a large size style. Obviously all of these changes have only one reason to explain, that is, Windows 8 is preparing for the future of the touch screen.

When it comes to "touch", the author can't help but think of a foreign forum circulated a few days ago. The picture, the content is also the Windows 8 login interface. However, what was presented at the time was not the account window that we are familiar with, but a login window that is very similar to the WM7 standby interface.

In fact, if you are also installing this M3 version, you can start this function by clicking the account icon → "My Settings" → "Enable Touch Access" in the lower right corner. Windows 8 automatically switches to this interface each time you turn it on, allowing users to directly view the time, date, day of the week, and terminal assistance parameters such as Wifi and battery.

And its switching is also very special, directly scrolling up with the scroll wheel (I think this should be designed for the touch screen
, the mouse behaves as scrolling, but when touched, it should be pointed by hand拽) You can restore to the previous account selection interface.

Of course, the author believes that this interface still has a lot of room for expansion, such as the ability to add to-do items, emails, shortcuts, etc. Of course, these ultimately depend on Microsoft's attitude, so far. It’s just the author’s personal guess.

Figure 8 is similar to the standby interface of WM7

Note: When switching from the standby interface back to the login interface, there will be problems that the mouse and keyboard cannot be used. The solution is to press the space bar again. It is not clear whether it is a bug, but I believe that Win8 should be able to automatically return control to the keyboard and mouse.
