Tried to add the first SLS map config get function into
the ADL.cs file, as well as all the supporting data
structures. Time will tell whether this will work or not!
The startPrograms UI would error when someone tried
to remove an unsaved startprogram from the FLP.
This has now been resolved.
Also managed to update a warning in the logs when
a program starts and the original exe is a loader that
loads another exe then closes itself. I've provided that
warning in the log file now.
Added exception protection around the video
card identifier errors to at least allow
DisplayMagician to kind of keep working even
if there are errors in the NVIDIA drivers. This fix
was brought about to get around problems with
NVIDIA RTX 2080Ti cards when using NVIDIA
driver 466.11. This fix should allow users with
cards that report data incorrectly to recreate new
DisplayProfiles, and then change all their shortcuts
to use those new Display Profiles. DisplayMagician
should then start working again. Fixes#7.
NOTE: This problem is a workaround for a broken
NVIDIA driver. Once NVIDIA find out and fix it, then
you will need to recreate your Display Profile again
and change all your shortcuts to the new Display
Prrofile in order for your shortcuts to work again.
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.
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!
It was erroring when loading games into
a blank shortcut screen. This was stopping
us being able to select any games at all.
Fixed another problem with Shortcut.IsValid
causing exception when loading a profle
that no longer existed. It now will correctly
report that the shortcut is isvalid.
Fixed the profiles selection so it doesn't change
when you swap screens. Made the 'View
current display' button refresh the profile validity
too, so that a user now only has to change their
display settings in Windows and then swap back
DisplayMagician and click the View Current Display
button and the profiles will be updated.
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.
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
