Partway through having the Screens properly populated for the NVIDIA surround screen setups, but have struck an issue with the extra non-surround screens in a combined surround and non-surround screen setup. The additional non-surround screens don't have any X & Y positions set within the mosaic config, which means I should really be using the WIndows config details, but there isn't anyway to identify which windows screen path matches which nvidia display ID. THe only way to do this is to start storing the NVIDIA displayconfig too.
This is the initial version of the spanned screen bitmap drawing. It woks by showing one giant screen, but it currently doesn't insert any information about the individual screens that make up the spanned screen at all. I'm going to add that improvement at a later date, because the main thing is to get the new libraries up and running, and used by people.
Added some basic CCD library functionality
to be able to set Windows displays directly
from the code. This will enable future native
HDR support through windows, as well as
allow positioning and screen setup to work
better through here than via the AMD driver.
Will still need to work on AMD Eyefinity support
once this is completed.
Now have the DisplayProfile storing the minimal set of
data that it needs. It also recreates the Screens list (used
for creating profile bitmaps and icons) and recreates the
DisplayProfileBitmaps each time at present. I will add some
logic to deerialise the bitmaps again at a later date once
I've compeleted actually applying the AMD display confs.
Trying to figure out a video card agnostic way
of generating the display icons fo both standard
and spanned displays. Still trying to figure out
exactly which AMD ADL calls I need to make to
get all the information I need. It is NOT very well
documented. It's actually really annoying! AMD
need to do better.
Trying to make the DisplayView and ProfileIcon
image drawing logic more generic so that it will
work with NVIDIA, AMD , Intel and Windows video
card drivers. Having to reverse engineer the amazing
wok that Soroush did with this stuff. I just know that
I'm going to break this before I fix it, but I really think
this is needed in order for this new video card
separation refactoring to work. This is going to take a
while I feel!
Installer works, but there are a few issues with it.
- It doesn't register the DesktopBackground COM server
- It doesn't create a start menu shortcut with the AUMID
- It doesn't check for .Net Framework 4.8 or later
- It doesn't try to install .Net Framework 4.8 or later if not there
- It doesn't have any customised backgrounds...
- It doesn't ask to run DisplayMagician when install is finished
