Completed the Shortcut and Display Profile
hotkey UI interface to a satisfactory level.
The hotkey settings are stored with the
profile JSON for profiles, and with the
shortcut JSON for shortcuts. This means
they load correctly and are remembered
between runs of DisplayMagician.
Next step is to actually register the Hotkeys
so they work, and then allow them to be
replaced or removed when they are changed.
NVIDIA just updated their device driver, and
as part of those changes, it changed the name
that was reported by the NVIDIA driver. This
impacts our profile matching, as we previously
used the name that it returned in the fingerprint
we store about connected displays. This change
removes that name so that it will correctly match
on the old driver or the new driver.
NOTE: This requires recreating the profiles though!
This change was to separate 'Equals'
(which checks for exactly the same) with
'Possible' (which checks that the connected
displays are available to use. Should make
the profile comparison a lot more accurate.
This time adjusted profile matching
so that it will work no matter what order
the displayidentifiers or paths are stored
in. Should be a bit slower but a lot more
reliable.
Fixed the Profile.Equals logic so that it
could detect the difference between
Surround and non-Surround triple screen
configurations. Now seems to work fine.
Also adjusted the ProfileAdapter so that
the profile imagelistview works correctly.
Moved to using the UUID rather than the
name to allow users to change the name
without affecting the UUID. That was a
change I should have made AGES ago.
Relaxed the profile matching logic to
use my looser displayidentifier logic
as it is more likely that connections to
a display is changed rather thant the
display paths, resolution or anything like
that. Will use this as an experiment to
see if it works or not.
Also fixed the shortcut renaming errors
by searching for the UUID, not the shortcut
name which is the pretty much the way
I should have done it in the first place!
Added a button to save a profile shortcut
to the Windows desktop. This will enable
people to quickly change to another display
configuration if they want to using a desktop
display. This will work even if they are unable
to get admin rights to install the background
popup menu.
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
