There was a flaw in the way that ProgramSettings was being used that meant there was a lot of reloading and saving going on which was unnecessary. Additionally there were some errors in the way that the Settings file was upgraded which mean that the old settings were keeping on getting overwritten. Fixes#104.
This DRS Support is just reserving a space for the future addition of DRS Settings pulled from the driver. This will allow the recording of settings listed in the 3D Settings within the NVIDIA Control panel.
Made some adjustments to when the MainForm is loaded, and how the NotifyIcon works for system tray.
Also Adjusted the way that the Windows Screens are computed so that we can reuse some of the code in AMD and NVIDIA screen generation so that the additional non-NVIDIA and non-AMD connected screens are still shown.
This will ensure that all screens show up in the images even if they aren't connected through an NVIDIA device. I also made the same changes to the AMD mode.
This is a subtle error, caused by either the NVIDIA driver being slow, or windows being slow in updating the location of the windows taskbar edge. This was causing an error in the GetNVIDIASCreenPositions function. Have added a 0.5 second delay to allow windows to update iit's display layout before we try to read it which should help, and also if we can't find the taskbar location in the settings, we just assume it is at the bottom. This should avoid exception.
Added specific checks to find and alert on 0 width or 0 height screens. This will then break other parts of the display layout.
Also moved the cloned screen check higher up to ensure we skip them properly.
Had some mistakes in the way that the profile graphics images were calculated on NVIDIA video cards. This meant that in some situations it calculated the image structures incorrectly, and didn't put the displays in the right places. This now changes that fact.
There is still an outstanding issue that the GetNVIDIAScreenPositions function still doesn't put the taskbar location in the right place yet. I need to fix that tomorrow.
There were some issues with memory deallocation where AllocateHGlobal memory was being freed incorrectly with FreeCoTaskMem. This was causing issues with subsequent memory allocations.
The Advanced Target Info object returned by the NVIDIA driver points to memory outside the allocated memory. I need to figure out how the NVIDIA code allocates the memory, so I can account for it on return.
I have been attempting to force Windows to refresh the notification tray using various Win32 API methods by sending messages to those notification tray windows to get them to refresh, but I haven't been able to get the right combination of setings. I am now leaving it for the next littlw while to concentrate on other issues.
Trying to get rid of any left over applications that DIsplayMagician had to kill the process of, so that the system tray is nice and tidy. Having some issues doing so.
There was a bug in the way that NVIDIA screen layouts were calculated. This error was due to a misunderstanding from me on how additional screens were listed within a mosaic config. Turns out additional screens are still recorded in the mosaic config, only just as 1x1 display grids. The screen finding logic now takes this into account.
Let's see if this works. It will skip grabbing the color data and the HDR data on monitors that don't support it. That includes the following connections types: VGA, COMPONENT, SVIDEO, DVI, COMPOSITE. Any other connection types will attempt to get HDR and Colour settings, so that we'll automatically support whatever new technology arrives in the future. Should help fix the last part of #76.
Finally managed to get taskbar positioning working perfectly. Also managed to add a 'Profile Tools' button which will allow the user to easily move the windows taskbar around the screen to different places. Please note that Windwows 11 taskbar only works at the top of the screen, or at the bottom. The taskbar will move to the left or right, but only the start button is shown :(. So I've disabled selecting left or right in Windows 11.
