Added a messagebox to warn the user
when they try to run an invalid shortcut.
It now asks the user if they really want to
do it, or it directly opens the 'edit' window
for if they want to fix things now.
Combined DisplayMagicianShared logging into
the main log file to simplify log reporting for the
future. Also started adding info and debug
statements to the program to make the debug
level log work well for troubleshooting. This is
going to take a LONG time to complete, but will
be worth it in the end.
Changed some misanchored UI
elements so that they will move correctly
when the UI windows are resized. Also
fixed a mistake that meant the 'Create
Shortcut' message wasn't hidden
when it should be.
UplayLibrary was erroring when run without
Uplay installed. Needed to tweak it so that
DisplayMagician will work without Uplay
library or Steam library installed.
Found issue where the IsRunning process
checks were breaking because they were
being running before the steam process
had a chance to create the process. This
meant the information wasn't aviailable for
the SteamGame.IsRunning function to
inspect. Fixed by adding in a 0.5 sec delay.
Toasts working for minimised start (allows use to
open the application) and for minimised close
(allows user to open the application or exit the
application).
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
This registers the Application User Model ID
with Win 10 so that it recognises the application
and can interact with it. This allows Toasts, Taskbar
pinning, right-click menus and other functions to
work.
Had problems storing ChangeAudioDevice and
SetAudioVolume settings (and the Capture Device
versions) so had to slightly change the way the
settings were stored.
Also set it to a more reasonable 20 second timeout
and then it continues through the starting process.
Also added some NLog error handling in RunShortcut.
There was an issue with the IsPossible check
as it hadn't been adjusted from when I removed
the Output from the display fingerprint. The
Output number changes in the NVIDIA driver
so it is different after a reboot. I hadn't removed
the Output from the current display device
check, and so it wasn't matching the correct
stored fingerprint.
Helper messages added to the MainForm and
to the Shortcut library to try and help people
understand what order to do things in so that
the software works as intended.
Fixed an issue where Steam and Uplay don't detect the
game correctly. Now they find the processes themselves.
Also fixed ProgramSettings so that it generates a new
settings file on startup.
Also added LogLevel option to the ProgramSettings so that
I can start rolling out the NLog log statements to report
errors from the binary when it's installed on people's
PCs.
The audio onselect event had an errant bit of
logic that resulted in an exception - now fixed.
Also updated the Setup UI with nicer pictures
and some words that are more reflective of the
purpose of this software.
Added the ability to store the audio device
information within the ShortcutItem, and also
added the logic to the ShortcutForm to correctly
load and save the audio device settings. Also
coped with the edge case of when an audio device
is turned off or unplugged when the user edits the
shortcut... in that case we want to still keep the
old audio device settings as it is likely to be plugged
back in when the shortcut is actually run.
Part of the work through getting audio devices
into DisplayMagician, as it now scans the devices
and automatically selects the one in use currently.
You can also press the 'rescan' button to have it
update the list. This is the UI part done.
Next step is the saving the chosen audio device
to the saved Shortcut!
